Review comment:
       Thanks @rdblue, it is a very interesting problem to handle the expired 
snapshot. I can reproduce the problem in unit test. I am thinking about it is 
better way to loop the snapshots without the parentId
   `  public static Snapshot snapshotAfter(Table table, long snapshotId) {
       Preconditions.checkArgument(table.snapshot(snapshotId) != null, "Cannot 
find parent snapshot: %s", snapshotId);
   
       Snapshot current = table.currentSnapshot();
       while (current != null) {
         if (current.parentId() == snapshotId) {
           return current;
         }
   
         current = table.snapshot(current.parentId());
       }
   
       throw new IllegalStateException(
           String.format("Cannot find snapshot after %s: not an ancestor of 
table's current snapshot", snapshotId));
     }`
   It seems like we have similar issue with the above code block when some of 
the previous snapshot expired
