Hello community,

Sort is an expensive operation and should be applied only once in the first
time. So if users call the same sort action on the table again, Iceberg
should smartly detect that the sort action is not necessary and skip it. In
other words, Iceberg should make the sort action an idempotent operation.

Here is my proposal to make sort action idempotent:

Really appreciate any comments/feedback.

Thanks,
Khai
