### Is your feature request related to a problem or challenge? While working on https://github.com/datafusion-contrib/datafusion-dft it was not clear that [`RuntimeEnv::new()`](https://docs.rs/datafusion/latest/datafusion/execution/runtime_env/struct.RuntimeEnv.html#method.new) actually returns a `Result` as the typical rust convention is a function `new()` is infallable and a function like `try_new()` is fallable. While this isn't a big deal it was a small usability papercut ### Describe the solution you'd like I would like `RuntimeEnv` to follow standard rust conventions to make it easier to use ### Describe alternatives you've considered I suggest: 1. Deprecating [`RuntimeEnv::new()`](https://docs.rs/datafusion/latest/datafusion/execution/runtime_env/struct.RuntimeEnv.html#method.new) 2. Add a new function `RuntimeEnv::try_new()` that does the same thing 3. Update all the datafusion code to use `try_new` instead ### Additional context _No response_ -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
