Description
in PR #21999, we have supported pushing down thoroughly the predicates on non-identity partition columns if they align with partitioning boundaries. So we can as well support the metadata delete on such predicates based on the same judgement logic.
Motivation and Context
Metadata-based deletion performs better than row-based deletion, and it do not corrupt the Iceberg data file metrics, so we should use it whenever possible.
