What is the purpose of the pull request
Before this change, the sequence of changes in the rollback action are:
(1) Get the instant (C1) to roll back. If there is already a pending rollback (RB_C1) for the same instant (C1) in the active timeline, the same rollback instant (RB_C1) and the rollback plan are reused. Otherwise, schedule a new rollback instant.
(2) Transition C1 to inflight if completed.
(3) Delete data files written by C1.
(4) Delete instant files (C1) in the data table timeline.
(5) Commit changes from the rollback (RB_C1) to metadata table
(6) Transition the rollback instant (RB_C1) from inflight to complete on data table timeline.
By design, we should only change data table timeline after committing the changes to the metadata table. This PR changes the order of timeline changes as below, switching the order of (4) and (5) above:
(1) Get the instant (C1) to roll back. If there is already a pending rollback (RB_C1) for the same instant (C1) in the active timeline, the same rollback instant (RB_C1) and the rollback plan is reused. Otherwise, schedule a new rollback instant.
(2) Transition C1 to inflight if completed.
(3) Delete data files written by C1.
(4) Commit changes from the rollback (RB_C1) to metadata table
(5) Delete instant files (C1) in the data table timeline.
(6) Transition the rollback instant (RB_C1) from inflight to complete on data table timeline.
