   Basically every "fastAppend" will create at least 1 new manifest file. Spark 
uses this when doing streaming writes.

   To actually get rid of the manifests you need to also need to run the 
rewrite metadata action before doing the expiration. Otherwise you would keep 
all of them even if you expire the snapshots.
   
   Remove orphan files I believe only has a spark implementation. If you don't 
see one in other places it doesn't exist.
