-The manifest entry fields are used to keep track of the snapshot in which
files were added or logically deleted. The `data_file` struct, defined below,
is nested inside the manifest entry so that it can be easily passed to job
planning without the manifest entry fields.

-When a file is replaced or deleted from the dataset, its manifest entry fields
store the snapshot ID in which the file was deleted and status 2 (deleted). The
file may be deleted from the file system when the snapshot in which it was
deleted is garbage collected, assuming that older snapshots have also been
garbage collected [1].

-Iceberg v2 adds data and file sequence numbers to the entry and makes the
snapshot ID optional. Values for these fields are inherited from manifest
metadata when `null`. That is, if the field is `null` for an entry, then the
entry must inherit its value from the manifest file's metadata, stored in the
manifest list.
-The `sequence_number` field represents the data sequence number and must never
change after a file is added to the dataset. The data sequence number
represents a relative age of the file content and should be used for planning
which delete files apply to a data file.
-The `file_sequence_number` field represents the sequence number of the
snapshot that added the file and must also remain unchanged upon assigning at
commit. The file sequence number can't be used for pruning delete files as the
data within the file may have an older data sequence number.
-The data and file sequence numbers are inherited only if the entry status is 1
(added). If the entry status is 0 (existing) or 2 (deleted), the entry must
include both sequence numbers explicitly.

Review Comment:
We should probably add the `MODIFIED` status also? Also, would you please
update the AMT proposal doc to include the status? (Also we need to move the
content from the Colocated entry tab into the main tab?)
