[I] [Python][C++] Add method to combine columns of (concat horizontally) two Tables [arrow]

jorisvandenbossche opened a new issue, #40797:
URL: https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/40797

   ### Describe the enhancement requested
   
   Similarly like `pd.concat(..., axis=1)` in pandas.
   
   Right now you can do this manually with something like:
   
   ```python
   import pyarrow as pa
   
   t1 = pa.table({'A': [1, 2, 3],
                  'B': [4, 5, 6]})
   t2 = pa.table({'C': [7, 8, 9],
                  'D': [10, 11, 12]})
   
   result = pa.Table.from_arrays(
     arrays=t1.columns + t2.columns,
     names=t1.schema.names + t2.schema.names
   )
   ```
   
   And of course you need to add name uniqueness checks, array length checks, etc if you want it to be robust.
   
   It would be nice to provide a built-in function for this in pyarrow (and potentially in C++?).
   
   
   
   
   
   ### Component(s)
   
   C++, Python
