[Arrow] bf16 support in arrow #521

@changhiskhan

Description

@changhiskhan

🚀 The feature, motivation and pitch

We're working on supporting bf16 in lance format, which will be presented as a bf16 extension type in Arrow (see PR for details: lancedb/lance#1002).

We're considering contributing the Arrow extension type as a canonical extension to the Arrow project. Would this be of interest / value to the pytorch community? How would this be integrated into the pytorch library?

If y'all are interested, we could start a discussion thread on Arrow mailing list and chat together?
