Review comment:
s/false/true
how about:
```
Use {@link Read#withoutRecordNumMetadata()} when recordNum metadata is not
required, for example, when when only filename metadata is required. Computing
record positions currently introduces a shuffle step, which increases the
resources used by the pipeline. <b> By default withoutRecordNumMetadata is set
to false, so the shuffle step is performed.</b>

The ordinal number of the record in its file.

Review comment:
this name may be confusing with recordOffset.
Consider:
`rangeOffset`
`recordNumInRange`
`The starting offset of the range (split), which contained the record, when
the record was read.`
