    Thanks for contributing this patch! I have two high level comments here:
    
    1. PR #7396 also tries to accelerate Parquet metadata discovery/refreshing 
by several means, and has been proven to be quite effective. We've observed 
~50x speedup on large partitioned S3 dataset with schema merging enabled.
    1. How about adding a check for `FileStatus.getModificationTime`? Namely, 
we only read footers of new files and existing files that are modified since 
last refresh. This can be particularly useful for appending.
    
    In general, this PR can be a good complement for #7396.
