   This makes estimating statistics worse, when we're doing a scan for a 
projection, and makes Spark miss opportunities to use a broadcast join instead 
of a SortMergeJoin. That was a problem before and was fixed by 
https://github.com/apache/iceberg/pull/3038.
   In my original iteration (see 
[commit](https://github.com/apache/iceberg/pull/3038/changes/5ee55601f38a9ed085557e5d5b6a9cb21be997b4)),
 I took the sum of the file sizes of the files to be scanned and adjusted it by 
the ratio of the size of the columns to be read to the size of all the columns. 
I also adjusted that by the compression factor in case it is set (the default 
is 1.0). However, @rdblue preferred that we ignore the size on disk and use the 
row size * num rows (row size being that of the projection).
