Review Comment:
   In my initial version of the code I had almost the same logic, but it was a 
bit difficult to understand because we basically need to handle the snapshot 
log handling both for the client and the server side.
   I'm also not a fan of exposing `removeLazilyLoadedSnapshotsIf()`, but it 
makes the intent a bit clearer.
   
   We've also talked with @danielcweeks  to explore lazy metadata loading in 
general and I've opened https://github.com/apache/iceberg/pull/8173 so that we 
can explore both options. This would allow solving us this particular issue but 
also allow the server to send a "slim" version of `TableMetadata` and load 
remaining data when requested. In particular, snapshots / history / metadata 
log can become quite long.
