Rationale for this change
Discovered while fixing apache/iceberg-go#309 we didn't correctly propagate the field-id metadata to children of List or Map fields, only structs.
What changes are included in this PR?
A new MapType creator for constructing MapTypes from arrow fields for the Key and Items for easier construction, and fixing the
pqarrowschema manifest creation to correctly propagate the child metadata field IDs for the children.Are these changes tested?
Unit test is added.
Are there any user-facing changes?
Usage of pqarrow reading List/Map typed fields will now correctly contain the
PARQUET:field_idmetadata key in the schema produced.
