Reviewed the deletion-vector merge-on-read implementation in detail. The scan planning, per-file deletion-vector application before key merging, post-merge residual filtering, incremental-read isolation, and bounded merge fan-in all look correct. Targeted core and DataFusion tests pass, formatting is clean, and all CI checks are green. LGTM.

What changed
deletion-vectors.merge-on-read=truefor deduplicate primary-key batch snapshot readsWhy
Deletion-vector tables normally hide uncompacted level-0 files until compaction. Java Paimon allows batch readers to opt into merge-on-read so recent level-0 data is visible immediately. The Rust reader parsed the option but did not implement the corresponding scan and read path.
Impact
Deduplicate primary-key tables with deletion vectors can now expose uncompacted data in batch snapshot queries while preserving primary-key, deletion-vector, and residual-filter correctness. The default remains unchanged. Streaming and changelog behavior are not affected, and partial-update or aggregation with DV merge-on-read remain unsupported.
