Add Java metadata for PageEncodingStats #1949

Description

@asfimport

PARQUET-384 needs to determine whether an entire column chunk is dictionary-encoded, but it is difficult to detect that case based on the set of encodings for a column. For 1.0, this can be done by checking for a PLAIN page because both dictionary pages and dictionary-encoded pages use PLAIN_DICTIONARY and RLE/BIT_PACKING is only used for repetition and definition levels. But for 2.0, dictionary pages might be using PLAIN and there is no way to tell if a column has fallen back.

PageEncodingStats were added to the format to solve this problem, so we just need to implement them.
