> From a discussion on a PR which documents the encoding argument ([https://github.com/apache/arrow/pull/13038)]
> Currently if we want to specify Arrow-specific read options such as encoding, we'd have to do something like this:
> {code:java}
> df <- read_csv_arrow(tf, read_options = CsvReadOptions$create(encoding = "utf8")) {code}
> However, this uses a lower-level API that we don't want to include in the examples for end-users to see.
>  
> We should update the code inside {{read_csv_arrow()}} so that the user can specify {{read_options}} as a list which we then pass through to CsvReadOptions internally, so we could instead call the much more user-friendly code below:
> {code:java}
> df <- read_csv_arrow(tf, read_options = list(encoding = "utf8")) {code}
> We should then add an example of this to the function doc examples.
>  
> We also should do the same for parse_options and convert_options.
