     - Timestamp values _with time zone_ represent a point in time: values are 
stored as UTC and do not retain a source time zone (`2017-11-16 17:10:34 PST` 
is stored/retrieved as `2017-11-17 01:10:34 UTC` and these values are 
considered identical).
     - Timestamp values _without time zone_ represent a date and time of day 
regardless of zone: the time value is independent of zone adjustments 
(`2017-11-16 17:10:34` is always retrieved as `2017-11-16 17:10:34`).

changed by schema evolution.

Review Comment:
   What is the expectation from `C`, `T` and `E` fields from the Parquet/ORC 
data files? Are they required to be set by Iceberg? From the Parquet spec, only 
`E` is required, both `C` and `T` are optional.
