Review comment:
       You should be able to use the expected/projection schema. All readers 
should reorder columns to produce the requested column order.
   
   `AvroSchemaWithTypeVisitor` traverses the file schema to create the reader 
structure, but that's because fields in Avro must be read in the file's order. 
But when that reader adds data columns to records, the values are put in the 
correct order because the [`ResolvingDecoder` returns the correct 
position](https://github.com/apache/iceberg/blob/master/core/src/main/java/org/apache/iceberg/avro/ValueReaders.java#L645-L648)
 in the projection schema.
