917b6f4afd iceberg: authorize a commit before staging its metadata file (#11891)
* iceberg: authorize a commit before staging its metadata file

Both commit paths (CommitTable and CommitTransaction) write the new
vN.metadata.json into the table's metadata/ directory and only then reach
UpdateTable, whose authorization refuses a caller that may read the table but
not commit to it. The refused commit then deletes the staged file on the way
out, so such a caller could make the server write and delete a file under the
table's prefix on every attempt. The same shape was closed for creates in
#10991.

Both paths now ask Manager.AuthorizeUpdateTable right after loading the table
and answer 403 ForbiddenException before anything is staged. UpdateTable still
decides under the policies in force when the pointer flips, so a policy changed
mid-commit is caught as before.

Test: TestCommitDeniedBeforeStagingMetadata records every file the handlers
create; on master both the single-table and the transaction commit by a
GetTable-only identity write v2.metadata.json before answering 403, with the
change nothing is written. TestCommitAllowedStagesMetadata is the positive
control (the owner, and an identity whose own actions include UpdateTable).

* iceberg: authorize a view commit before staging its metadata

handleUpdateView has the same write-before-authorize gap the table commit
paths had: it stages the new metadata file and only reaches the UpdateView
authorization at the pointer flip, so a caller who may only load the view
could still make the server write and delete files under it. Gate it on
AuthorizeUpdateView, mirroring authorizeCommit.

* iceberg: seed committed view metadata in the denied-commit test

Without stored view metadata the request fails on the missing-metadata
check before it could stage a file, so the zero-write assertion could
not catch a write-before-denial regression. Seed the same metadata the
allowed-path test uses so the denied request would otherwise stage.
