Research direction
Read ccflow/exttypes/narwhals.py around line 143 to understand the existing dtype validator and its current accepted inputs. Check how validation is tested in the repository before extending it. Done means polars, numpy, pandas, and Python types can be specified and converted to narwhals types.
