   # Which issue does this PR close?
   
   - Closes #8523.
   
   # Rationale for this change
   
   One of the primary reasons the GeoParquet community was excited about 
first-class Parquet Geometry/Geography support was the built-in column chunk 
statistics (we had a workaround that involved adding a struct column, but it 
was difficult for non-spatial readers to use it and very difficult for 
non-spatial writers to write it). This PR ensures it is possible for arrow-rs 
to write files that include those statistics.
   
   # What changes are included in this PR?
   
   This PR inserts the minimum required change to enable this support (behind a 
feature flag).
   
   This also fixes a "bug" (if anybody had been using it to write Geospatial 
types, which is unlikely)...those types must not have page min/max statistics 
written.
   
   # Are these changes tested?
   
   They will be! (Work in progress)
   
   # Are there any user-facing changes?
   
   No, this is behind a newly invented feature flag. In the unlikely event 
anybody had been writing Geometry/Geography logical types, they would continue 
to not have geospatial statistics written.
