[jira] [Created] (ARROW-12661) [C++] CSV add skip rows after column names

Nate Clark created ARROW-12661:
----------------------------------

             Summary: [C++] CSV add skip rows after column names
                 Key: ARROW-12661
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-12661
             Project: Apache Arrow
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: C++
            Reporter: Nate Clark


Some programs generator csv files with additional descriptive information about the columns on a row after the names. For files like this it would be nice to have an option which reads the first row as column names and then can skip those rows after the names.

This could probably be implemented easily as either another option parallel ReadOptions::skip_rows or a boolean which indicates if skipping should occur before or after the column names are read.
