Nicola Crane updated ARROW-18354:
---------------------------------
Description:
When a user opens a CSV dataset using open_dataset, they can take advantage of
a lot of different options which can be specified via
{{CsvReadOptions$create()}} etc.
However, as they are passed in via the ellipses ({{...}}) argument, it's not
particularly clear to users which arguments are supported or not. They are not
documented in the {{open_dataset()}} docs, and further confused (see the code
for {{CsvFileFormat$create()}} by the fact that we support a mix of Arrow and
readr parameters (though users can't use both at the same time).
We should better document the arguments we do support.
