Review Comment:
   > Can we provide a similar entry where the user simply tells the Builder 
that he wants to use AvroGenericRecordReaderFunction , and then lets the 
Builder create it?
   
   I see your point. I agree that it is cumbersome for users to construct 
`AvroGenericRecordReaderFunction` or `RowDataReaderFunction`. Since we can 
extract type information from generic `T`, one idea would to add a setter for 
type class to the builder. If the type class is `RowData`, builder constructs 
`RowDataReaderFunction`. If it is Avro `GenericRecord, builder constructs 
`AvroGenericRecordReaderFunction`.
   
   ```
   public outputType(Class<T> outputRecordTypeClass)
   ```
   
   > we should also allow users to query metadata tables via the flink java 
api, right?
   
   I am not sure if that is necessary. Doesn't Iceberg Java API cover that 
already?
