# Which issue does this PR close? - Part of #7582. # Rationale for this change To enable selective population of the page index, there must be a mechanism to go from Thrift encoded bytes to crate index structures (`ColumnIndexMetaData`, `OffsetIndexMetaData`). All of the functions in this crate to do this transformation are private. This PR makes the minimum set of functions necessary public to enable users to parse these structures themselves. # What changes are included in this PR? Changes `decode_offset_index` and `decode_column_index` from the `file::page_index` modules public, as well as `offset_index_range` and `column_index_range` from `ColumnChunkMetaData`. Claude Code graciously provided the public API documentation and examples. This PR also makes some drive-by fixes to the `ColumnChunkMetaData` documentation. # Are these changes tested? Covered by existing tests # Are there any user-facing changes? Adds 4 functions to the public API, but no breaking changes. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
