URL: https://github.com/apache/arrow-adbc/issues/2413

   ### What feature or improvement would you like to see?
   
   Thanks to the Arrow PyCapsule Interface, one can read data directly into 
supported libraries (e.g., DuckDB, Polars) without requiring PyArrow. This is 
great!
   
   Writing on the hand (e.g., via `adbc_ingest`), does require PyArrow. This is 
a bit of a shame given that the `data` supplied to `adbc_ingest` also supports 
the PyCapsule Interface.
   
   Furthermore, removal of PyArrow as a required DBAPI dependency would allow 
reading data with a higher level API.
   
   These changes would be particularly beneficial to a library like Polars, 
removing the need for PyArrow completely for database I/O.
   
   NB. I am certainly no expert regarding this, so please correct me if I have 
said anything incorrect or there are fundamental limitations that make this 
request unreasonable.
