@kosiew I tried taking a stab at moving all of the scalar value conversion to a single point and supporting all of the libraries that I know about. I didn't add unit tests yet, though. |

This PR is a proposal for adding a single point where we do python object to scalar value conversion. It attempts to handle three known arrow libraries: pyarrow, nanoarrow, and arro3. It includes trying to convert any library that produces a pycapsule arrow interface. There is a fallback to take any regular Python object and try turning it into a pyarrow scalar value and then importing it.
