**Is your feature request related to a problem or challenge? Please describe
what you are trying to do.**
Disclaimer: I only started using arrow-rs the other day via lancedb.
It seems annoying to have to both remember to import Arc and then write out
`Arc::new(..)` every time you want to use a FooRef type.
**Describe the solution you'd like**
Wouldn't it make more sense to implement a `fn arc(self) -> Arc<Self> {
Arc::new(self) }` on types for which FooRef is commonly used?
**Describe alternatives you've considered**
Maybe I've just been looking at a lot of example code and typically you load
schemas/arrays from things that already return them wrapped in Arc?
Also, `to_arc` is maybe more in line with Rust naming guidelines. I don't
think `to_ref` or `ref` is the right choice since it's not returning a &T.
