Review comment:
       I think alias is a bit different here, I think alias is used mostly for 
integration purpose from converting a file schema to iceberg schema for easier 
lookup (i.e. as a form of helper method), and isn't part of the the iceberg 
schema itself and isn't written to table metadata; so I think they may not be 
strictly required when constructing new schemas from this class.
