…pliance The Iceberg spec, Java, and Python all serialize the decimal type as `decimal(P, S)` (with a space after the comma). iceberg-rust was writing `decimal(P,S)` which could cause metadata written by Rust to be rejected or misinterpreted by strict parsers in other implementations. The deserializer already handles both formats via trim(), so this change is backwards-compatible for reading. Closes apache#2534 Co-authored-by: rawataaryan9 <rawataaryan9@users.noreply.github.com>

Summary
iceberg-rust serializes the decimal type as
decimal(P,S)(no space), while the Iceberg spec, Java, and Python all usedecimal(P, S)(space after comma). This mismatch can cause issues when metadata written by iceberg-rust is read by strict parsers in other implementations.What changed
serialize_decimal:decimal({precision},{scale})→decimal({precision}, {scale})Display for PrimitiveType: same fix for the decimal armWhy this is safe
The deserializer already uses
.trim()on both precision and scale components, so it accepts bothdecimal(9,2)anddecimal(9, 2). Existing metadata files with the old format continue to be readable.Closes #2534
