Research direction

Start with the cWiki design and architecture page, then review the long-pending PR and search the Java sources for dataFile, df, and HoodieBaseFile references. Done means variables and comments for this type consistently use baseFile or bf instead of dataFile or df, with the existing review concerns resolved.
