Review Comment:
   You're right that we can't just change this since it's public. I think what 
we should do is add a private constructor that accepts the 
`FileAppender<PositionDelete<T>>` and add a `create` method for 
`FileWriterBuilderImpl` to use. Then we can deprecate this version, since we 
know that `PositionDelete<T>` is always what gets passed in through the `write` 
method.
   
   Unfortunately, `FileAppender<StructLike>` and 
`FileAppender<PositionDelete<T>>` have the same erasure, so creating the 
private constructor will require reordering args or adding a dummy argument. 
But once we remove the current constructor in 1.11, we can revert back.
