Review Comment:
   Thanks for sharing the background discussion during puffin stats addition.
   
   Yeah, there is no standard in Iceberg whether to expose branch or snapshot 
id. 
   Snapshot id seems more convenient, I have raised a PR for base interface to 
adopt snapshot id. 
   https://github.com/apache/iceberg/pull/12464
   
   I will rebase this PR after that.   
   
   > or may be support both 
   
   Supporting both is not a good idea as branch is just an alias for snapshot 
and exposing both will confuse the user and need extra validations if user 
configures both my mistake.
