Review Comment:
>Moving ApproxEquals to be inline changes the API structure and could affect
binary compatibility.
1-My general assumption is that, since there is a major release every three
months, this should not be a problem. Am I right, or should we apply the
suggestion?

Can we ignore this, given that the default behavior of
arrow::RecordBatch::ApproxEquals already ignores the schema?
