Hello

I want to work on IMPALA-11993 and need the privilege to self-assign JIRA
stories. My JIRA username is Gia3.

*Approach -*
As per the documentation here -
https://impala.apache.org/docs/build/asf-site-html/topics/impala_s3.html,
it says that

   -

   The TRUNCATE TABLE
   
<https://impala.apache.org/docs/build/asf-site-html/topics/impala_truncate_table.html#truncate_table>
statement
   always removes the corresponding data files from S3 when the table is
   truncated.


But we would want to update the section 'Writing Iceberg tables' under
https://impala.apache.org/docs/build/asf-site-html/topics/impala_iceberg.html
with
these details as mentioned in the story -

*However, for Iceberg it's not the case as Iceberg 'only' creates a new
snapshot for the table but doesn't delete the files, because for time
travel they could be relevant for older snapshots.*

Please let me know if this understanding is correct. Also, why can't we
have a search bar in this documentation, so finding keywords is easy?

*Thank You*
