Review Comment:
   I am sorry for the delayed feeback @devanbenz  -- I swear I typed this 
feedback but i must not have clicked "submit"
   
   Basically my concerns about this approach are twofold:
   1. This code assumes the parquet file is on the local filesystem (when for 
many systems it may be on remote object storage)
   2. It also adds a dependency in sql parsing to the parquet format. Since 
`parquet` has quite a few dependencies, this new dependency is likely non ideal 
for systems that are using DataFusion for sql parsing (like dask-sql for 
example)
   
   
   Perhaps you could delay the creation of the ORDER BY until the table 
provider is resolved? 
   
   The table provider:

   Once the table provider is resolved then the schema's table can be known
   
   Another benefit of this approach is that it would work for all formats, not 
just parquet
