"""Data types used in describing Iceberg schemas
-
This module implements the data types described in the Iceberg specification
for Iceberg schemas. To
describe an Iceberg table schema, these classes can be used in the
construction of a StructType instance.
-
Example:
>>> StructType(
[
NestedField(True, 1, "required_field", StringType()),
NestedField(False, 2, "optional_field", IntegerType()),
]
)
-

Review comment:
Definitely not required, but I felt `IcebergType` was clearer and as you
say
> this class is internal and won't be used extensively
so to me that would mean making the change for the sake of clarity and
avoiding the unnecessary collision. Would this base type be touched at all even
or is it just for consolidating logic?
