> In the style of NumPy's {{__array__}}, we should be able to ask inputs to {{pa.array}}, {{pa.Table.from_X}}, ... whether they can convert themselves to Arrow objects. This would allow for example to turn objects that hold an Arrow object internally to expose them directly instead of going a conversion path.
> My current use case involves Pandas {{ExtensionArray}} instances that internally have Arrow objects and should be reused when we pass the whole {{DataFrame}} to {{pa.Table.from_pandas}}.
