### Apache Iceberg version 1.3.1 ### Query engine None ### Please describe the bug 🐞 The [Iceberg spec mandates which fields to be present in Manifest files](https://iceberg.apache.org/spec/#:~:text=A%20manifest%20file%20must%20store%20the%20partition%20spec%20and%20other%20metadata%20as%20properties%20in%20the%20Avro%20file%E2%80%99s%20key%2Dvalue%20metadata%3A). Yet, the spec does not mandate which fields to be present in ManifestList files, which seems to be an inconsistent oversight. The implementation does write a bunch of fields for ManifestList: * format-version * snapshot-id * parent-snapshot-id * sequence-number (v2 only) Suggestion: Create a table for ManifestList in the spec, akin to the table for Manifest, and list the entries written by the implementation. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
