Review Comment:
The `desc formatted tbl_ice_puffin a` doesn't fetch the stats from puffin
files though with `hive.iceberg.stats.source=iceberg`, instead it goes to
metastore for the stats.
The `tbl_ice_puffin` is an external table and recreated(inserted) multiple
times before the desc, so this time when the table created, the legacy data
files left behind make HMS believe that the column stats is stale(eg, cann't
assume the row number is 0 and the min/max of column a),
as a result stats of the insertion("values (1, 'one', 50), (2, 'two',
51),(2, 'two', 51),(2, 'two', 51), (3, 'three', 52), (4, 'four', 53)") after
cann't be merged.
There is an `explain select * from tbl_ice_puffin order by a, b, c;` before
the desc, as we can see, the stats stored in puffin files are not removed.
