This is so as to avoid a potential schema mismatch resulting from upcasting arrow 8 and 16 bit integers to Iceberg 32 bit integer type.
This is one way to resolve #813. Note that this is dependent on apache/arrow-rs#6892 getting merged (and picked up) first.
I still need to think of a proper test case for this too.
Closes #813.
