@WillAyd @pitrou what would be your expectation here:
```
arr = np.array([1.5, np.nan], dtype=np.float16)
a = pa.array(arr, type=pa.float16())
x, y = a.to_pylist()
```
`isinstance(x, float)` or `isinstance(x, np.float16)`?
Currently we convert to `np.float16` but in my opinion we should return a
Python Float otherwise we unnecessarily require numpy.
