+/**
+ * File logical type annotation
+ *
+ * Annotates a group that represents a reference to an external file.
+ * The group must contain the following fields identified by name:
+ * - path (STRING, required): an opaque string path to the file (e.g.
s3://bucket/file.jpg)
Review Comment:
Can we make this optional and say if it is NULL or empty the path is the
parquet file itself? This makes a parquet file self contained and moveable
trivially (renaming the file itself does not require a re-encoding pass).
