> Dataset timeline: C1 C2 C3 Compaction.inflight C4 C5
> Metadata timeline: DC1 DC2 DC3. (DC=deltaCommit)
> Assume the dataset timeline has some completed commits (C1, C2 ... C5) and an async compaction operation in progress. Also assume that the metadata table is synced only till C3.
> The MetadataTableWriter will not sync any more instants to the Metadata Table since an incomplete instant is present next (Compaction.inflight).
> The same sync logic is also used by the MetadataReader to perform the in-memory merge of timeline. Hence, the reader will also not consider C4 and C5  thereby providing an incorrect and older view of the FileSlices and FileGroups. 
> Any future ingestion into this table MAY insert data into older versions of the FileSlices which will end up being a data loss when queried.
