snapshot, and return metadata across all snapshots.

Review Comment:
   No problem, these are just small points.
   
   I mean, in the other tables examples they show a realistic path, for 
example, the files table shows:
   
   s3:/.../table/data/00000-3-8d6d60e8-d427-4809-bcf0-f5d45a4aad96.parquet
   
   My point was just, its a bit inconsistent in the doc to suddenly jump from 
the example using real possible parquet file names, to a fake ones like 
xxx.parquet.
   
   For the second point, the second partition value is {false, false, 20210101, 
20210101} , looks like date, but the first one is {false, false, 10, 11}, which 
does not look like date.  So just wondering if we can make it more consistent 
and have both be dates or something.  Again, not a huge point, but just feels 
like a more realistic example for users.
