Research direction

The AES GCM fixtures are currently in the iceberg-python repository, added in PR #3969. First, locate these fixture files in the codebase, likely in a test or verification directory. Then, understand the structure of the new iceberg-verification repository by reviewing its issue #11. The task involves moving the fixture files to the verification repo and updating any references. Verify the move by ensuring tests in both repositories still pass.

Description

Feature Request / Improvement

The fixtures added in https://github.com/apache/iceberg-python/pull/3969 are useful for all clients implementing the encryption spec. We should move those to the new iceberg-verification repo

https://github.com/apache/iceberg-verification is new but I've opened an issue there also https://github.com/apache/iceberg-verification/issues/11 to tack this.
