Please describe the bug 🐞

Recently, we attempted to use Xtable on our database to convert Delta Tables to Iceberg Tables using the Xtable jar. The conversion was successful. However, we encountered discrepancies when reading the statistics of the Iceberg table. Specifically, for the decimal columns, the upper and lower bounds were incorrectly calculated in the Iceberg Avro snapshots file compared to native Iceberg tables. For instance, if the minimum and maximum of a decimal column are -8.0 and -5.0, the stats are showing 0.8 and 0.5, which is completely incorrect.

@Prajwaltr011 can you attach the _delta_log? The stats are copied directly from the delta log so it will be easier to reproduce this case with that information.

Sure @the-other-tim-brown. Please find attached delta logs files. One important thing to note it down is that we have ran "explain analyze" command on these tables using Trino which calculated trino meta stats. I am not sure whether this will have any impact on Iceberg stats population.
