Research direction

Start with the PrimitiveType enum and trace its Arrow type mapping, Avro schema handling, and serde support. Compare each area with the referenced Java org.apache.iceberg.types.Types implementation; the work is done when Variant, Geometry, Geography, and Unknown support v3 tables produced by Spark across those paths.
