Review comment:
@nealrichardson this implementation will not actually work until #11159
is merged and we have a `list_element` scalar kernel, but the gist of this as
follows:
We need to translate `median(x, na.rm)` to `list_element(tdigest(x, q = 0.5,
skip_nulls = na.rm), 0)` but because of how aggregate function bindings work,
it isn't possible to do that directly in the definition for `agg_funcs$median`,
so I hacked together this solution in which `summarize_eval()` calls a function
named `wrap_median()` that recurses through the expression AST and replaces
`median(...)` with `arrow_list_element(median(...))`.
Can you think of a more straightforward immediate solution to this?
I think we should ask for a `median()` kernel to avoid having to do all
these contortions in the R bindings.
