Which Delta project/connector is this regarding?
Description
The Deletion Vector descriptor of each file is currently serialized in file's custom metadata as a JSON string. We can reduce the size of the descriptor by using a custom binary encoding. Note that the serialized DV descriptor is never persisted to disk so this change is safe.
How was this patch tested?
Updated existing new tests.
Does this PR introduce any user-facing changes?
No
