### Describe the enhancement requested Hi Arrow team We use pyarrow for dataset partitioning. We want to find the relative paths on the filesystem for respective partitioning schemes and segment encodings. For example, if using hive partitioning, given a filter `("key", "=", "value value")`, we would like `/key=value value/` another example, if using hive partitioning, and uri segment encoding, given a filter `("key", "=", "value value")`, we would like `/key=value%20value/` another example, if using directorypartitioning, given a filter `("key", "=", "value value")`, we would like `/value value/`. We are currently composing these paths by hand, but we would like to be resilient to changes/inheritances in arrow implementation. To achieve this, we would really appreciate if the C++ API ``` arrow::dataset::Partitioning:Format ``` could be exposed via cython https://github.com/apache/arrow/blob/712cfe6d84bd344cfe57a1e4c791f8a4d052c76d/python/pyarrow/includes/libarrow_dataset.pxd#L290 https://github.com/apache/arrow/blob/712cfe6d84bd344cfe57a1e4c791f8a4d052c76d/python/pyarrow/_dataset.pyx#L2492 like the `arrow::dataset::Partitioning:Parse` method. Thanks in advance for any help or discussion! ### Component(s) Integration, Parquet, Python -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
