Review Comment:
   I think there is still a problem in that we are mixing file-level keys with 
table-level keys. The keys table is intended to be a small set of keys that are 
reused and occasionally rotated, not file-specific.
   
   @ggershinsky, how should we handle these? Do we need a way to store 
encrypted key metadata? What I'm thinking is that we keep `key-metadata` but 
add an optional `key-id` that is used to encrypt the stats file key?
