Review Comment:
   Taking a step back, here is my motivation for the refactor: I found that in 
terms of encryption support, our readers are asymmetric now, e.g. Spark readers 
can read encrypted data and deletes files, but `GenericReader` and 
`IcebergInputFormat` can't read encrypted delete files, while 
`EqualityConvertReader` can't read neither encrypted data nor delete files. The 
idea is to wire-in `InputFilesDecryptor` into the readers where we get it 
guaranteed that given a `ScanTask` by the reader we have all the referenced 
files involved with decryption, eliminating asymmetry.
   Other motivation is that whenever we add new set of files, e.g. ColumnFiles 
into the picture, we don't forget to implement encryption support for them. 
Doing that in `InputFilesDecryptor` solves this too.
   
   The above proposal makes `referencedFiles` in Spark redundant with what 
`InputFilesDecryptor` is meant to do.
