jcrist commented on issue #1517: ARROW-2036: [Python] Support standard IOBase
methods on NativeFile

Sounds good, I suspect we're just talking past each other here. Apologies
for sidetracking this PR.
In regards to this PR, I'm a bit unsure about the `writeable -> writable`
change. If you google "writeable or writable" you'll find other projects(e.g.
nodejs) that have also gone through this decision - most settled on `writable`
as it's a more common english spelling. I made this change originally to mirror
the added `writable` method (part of the python file interface). However, a few
dependencies of pyarrow (`libhdfs` and `numpy`) use "writeable" instead, as
does the arrow c++ code. I could go either way on this change.

> If `NativeFile` supported most/all of the standard IOBase methods
> ([https://docs.python.org/3/library/io.html#io.IOBase),] then it'd be easier
> to use arrow files with other python libraries. Would at least be nice to
> support enough operations to use `io.TextIOWrapper`.
