Primitive types added
| | **`uuid`** | Universally unique identifiers
| Should use 16-byte fixed

| | **`fixed(L)`** | Fixed-length byte array of length L

+| [v3](#version-3) | **`geometry(C, CE, E)`** | An object of the simple
feature geometry model as defined by Appendix G; This may be any of the
geometry subclasses defined therein; crs C [4], crs-encoding CE [5], edges E
[6] | C, CE, E are fixed, and if unset will take default values. Encoded as
WKB, see Appendix G. |
Notes:
1. 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`).
2. 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).
3. Character strings must be stored as UTF-8 encoded byte arrays.
+4. Crs (coordinate reference system) is a mapping of how coordinates refer to
precise locations on earth. Defaults to "OGC:CRS84". Fixed and cannot be
changed by schema evolution.
+5. Crs-encoding (coordinate reference system encoding) is the type of crs
field. Must be set if crs is set. Defaults to "PROJJSON". Fixed and cannot be
changed by schema evolution.
+6. Edges is the interpretation for non-point geometries in geometry object,
i.e. whether an edge between points represent a straight cartesian line or the
shortest line on the sphere. Defaults to "planar". Fixed and cannot be changed
by schema evolution.
Review Comment:
Yea , forgot to mention explicitly that in Iceberg, pruning is always an
optional feature for reads, so no issue.
