Module manifest_list 

Manifest list handling and management for Iceberg tables.

This module provides the core types and implementations for working with manifest lists, which track all manifest files in a table snapshot. Key components include:

• ManifestListEntry - Entries describing manifest files and their contents
• Content - Types of content tracked by manifests (data vs deletes)
• FieldSummary - Statistics and metadata about partition fields

Manifest lists are a critical part of Iceberg’s metadata hierarchy, providing an index of all manifest files and enabling efficient manifest pruning during scans. They include summary statistics that can be used to skip reading manifests that don’t contain relevant data for a query.

Structs
