   @fengjiajie: This change was introduced, because in older Iceberg versions 
the different statistics behaved differently. See: 
https://github.com/apache/iceberg/pull/7643
   
   The goal is that the `DataFile` should be immutable.
   
   I have 2 main issues with the proposed change:
   - It make the statistics mutable
   - It would introduce an extra copy of the statistics maps, which is 
problematic from performance reasons.
   
   I think the main issue is that in your code the generated statistics maps 
are not stored in `SerializableMap` and `SerializableByteBufferMap` objects. 
This is the reason why the copy method falls back wrapping it to 
`Collections.unmodifiableMap(map)` instead of calling `map.immutableMap()`. The 
result of the former is not serializable with Kryo, while the result of the 
later should work.
