Review Comment:
   Basically, we have three choices of behavior when gRPC returns `false` on a 
write (write failed, but no error info):
   
   1. Swallow the error and continue on until the user eventually calls Finish 
to get the error. (Arrow <= 7)
   2. Raise a generic error to interrupt the writer, the user must catch this 
and still call Finish (Arrow 8)
   3. Call Finish for the user and raise the actual error, _presumably_ this 
will complete instantly as the reason why `false` was returned means that there 
is already an error (this PR)
   
   `read_mutex` is for any read operation which includes `Finish` (this is 
implicitly a read)
