OpenAPI tool will WARN a lot if Operation IDs overlap. Generated code/html
may also look odd in case of overlaps.

All-in-all, I think the best practice is to define unique Operation IDs up
front.

For Iceberg REST API, the yaml file is the API definition, so it should not
be a problem to ensure that Operation IDs are unique, I guess.

Cheers,
Dmitri.
