+/**
+ * Represents a partitioning where rows are split across partitions based on 
transforms defined
+ * by `expressions`. `partitionValuesOpt`, if defined, should contain value of 
partition key(s) in
+ * ascending order, after evaluated by the transforms in `expressions`, for 
each input partition.
+ * In addition, its length must be the same as the number of input partitions 
(and thus is a 1-1
+ * mapping), and each row in `partitionValuesOpt` must be unique.
+ *
+ * For example, if `expressions` is `[years(ts_col)]`, then a valid value of 
`partitionValuesOpt` is
+ * `[0, 1, 2]`, which represents 3 input partitions with distinct partition 
values. All rows
+ * in each partition have the same value for column `ts_col` (which is of 
timestamp type), after
+ * being applied by the `years` transform.

Review comment:
       I like `KeyGroupedPartitioning` more because it's not limited to data 
source v2. Technically the existing `HashPartitioning` can also be a 
`KeyGroupedPartitioning` using hash expression as the key expression.
