A predicate for filtering row groups based on column statistics.

Filter predicates enable predicate push-down: row groups whose statistics prove that no rows can match the predicate are skipped entirely, avoiding unnecessary I/O and decoding.

Usage examples:

// Simple comparison
FilterPredicate filter = FilterPredicate.gt("age", 21);

// Compound predicate
FilterPredicate filter = FilterPredicate.and(
    FilterPredicate.gtEq("salary", 50000L),
    FilterPredicate.lt("age", 65)
);

// Use with reader
try (ColumnReader reader = fileReader.createColumnReader("salary", filter)) {
    while (reader.nextBatch()) { ... }
}
