Review Comment:
   This should either be `GenericTrackedFile` (the internal representation) or 
an interface in core, like `TrackedFileSetters`. I would probably use 
`GenericTrackedFile`.
   
   I think we also need to consider what setter methods to add here. We have 
inverted the relationship between `TrackedFile` / `DataFile` and `TrackingInfo` 
/ `ManifestEntry` so I don't think it makes sense to call `setSnapshotId` on 
`TrackedFile` itself just because that is the top-level record in manifests. 
I'd rather get the `TrackingInfo` and modify that directly:
   
   ```java
     TrackedFile apply(GenericTrackedFile file) {
       TrackingInfoStruct info;
       if (file.trackingInfo() instanceof TrackingInfoStruct) {
         info = file.trackingInfo();
       } else {
         info = new TrackingInfoStruct(file.trackingInfo()); // copy to mutable
       }
   
       if (info.snapshotId() == null) {
         info.setSnapshotId(snapshotId);
       }
       ...
   
       file.setTrackingInfo(info);
   
       return file;
     }
   ```
