[jira] [Created] (ARROW-11605) [Rust] Adopt a MSRV policy

Neville Dipale created ARROW-11605:
--------------------------------------

             Summary: [Rust] Adopt a MSRV policy
                 Key: ARROW-11605
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-11605
             Project: Apache Arrow
          Issue Type: Task
          Components: Rust
            Reporter: Neville Dipale


With all our crates now supporting stable Rust, we can decide on a Minimum Supported Rust Version, so that we don't introduce breakage to people relying on older Rust versions.

We could:
* Determine what the earliest Rust version that compiles is (at least 1.39 due to async in DF)
* Use this version in CI
* Decide on, and document, a policy for how we update versions

This might mean that when there's fresh new changes landing in Stable, we'd likely hold off on them until those changes meet our MSRV.
