Discussed this with @ajantha-bhat offline:
- We think that the need to recompute the stats is very-very rare. Ajantha
mentioned that maybe when the stats file was deleted accidentally then it could
lead to corruption when the stats removal is needed.
- Also he mentioned that using the java API the user could remove the stats
already:
```
table.refresh();
UpdatePartitionStatistics update = table.updatePartitionStatistics();
table.snapshots().forEach(s ->
update.removePartitionStatistics(s.snapshotId()));
update.commit();
```
- Based on this, if there are no immediate needs from the compute engines we
could just omit the `computeAndWriteStatsFullRefresh` method.
- We can always add the new method to the API if the need rises.
What do you think @deniskuzZ, @gaborkaszab?
