This is a WIP as some issues need to be worked out on the Arrow side and
need tests for pandas_udfs. Currently get the following error when converting
from pandas:
```
File "/home/bryan/git/spark/python/pyspark/serializers.py", line 237, in
create_array
return pa.Array.from_pandas(s, mask=mask, type=t)
File "array.pxi", line 335, in pyarrow.lib.Array.from_pandas
File "array.pxi", line 170, in pyarrow.lib.array
File "array.pxi", line 70, in pyarrow.lib._ndarray_to_array
File "error.pxi", line 85, in pyarrow.lib.check_status
ArrowNotImplementedError: No cast implemented from binary to binary
```
