Review comment:
       Yea this was tricky and I went back and forth with various solutions.  
It is relevant for Files and other tables like AllManifests, AllEntries.
   
   BaseAllMetadataTableScan used to override planFiles() , and was inherited by 
AllDataFiles, AllManifests, AllEntries.  Now moving AllDataFiles to 
BaseFilesTableScan.  Hence moving the method up to the common parent, so it can 
be shared by the two hierarchies (BaseAllMetadataTableScans and 
BaseFilesTableScan), though we don't get the free override anymore as 
AllDataFiles cannot have multiple inheritance.
