Add support for relative paths in table metadata
Metadata currently tracks all paths using the full path. This is costly when not using compression (like the current metadata files) and doesn't allow a table to be easily relocated. The format should support relative paths with respect to the table root, or full paths.
where would the table root path be stored?
There's already a location in the metadata that we use to build paths. We could just use that.
