Review Comment:
   If that's the case then doesn't the last condition here do nothing since it 
can only reach this check if one of the earlier checks was true anyway:
   
   ```java
    deletePaths.contains(file.location())
                             || deleteFiles.contains(file)
                             || dropPartitions.contains(file.specId(), 
file.partition())
                             || (isDelete
                                 && entry.isLive()
                                 && entry.dataSequenceNumber() > 0
                                 && entry.dataSequenceNumber() < 
minSequenceNumber);
    ```
    
    It seems like perhaps `dropDeleteFilesOlderThan` has no affect anymore 
(unless `allDeletesReferenceManifests` gets set to false or something). 
    
   I think not removing by `minSequenceNumber` leaves undeleted delete files 
that just never get applied to any files at query time, so it's not the end of 
the world, but it does lead to some wasted storage and slightly longer scan 
planning times. 
   
   Assuming we want to keep this behaviour perhaps we should just not use 
`dropDeleteFilesOlderThan` anymore in `mergingSnapshotProducer` then?
