Descripción
Currently we seem to use in all applications of Arrow the IPC capabilities to move data between a Java process and a Python process. While this is 0-serialization, it is not zero-copy. By taking the address and offset, we can already create Python buffers from Java buffers: https://github.com/apache/arrow/pull/1693. This is still a very low-level interface and we should provide the user with:
- A guide on how to load Apache Arrow java libraries in Python (either through a fat-jar that was shipped with Arrow or how he should integrate it into its Java packaging)
- `pyarrow.Array.from_jvm`, `pyarrow.RecordBatch.from_jvm`, … functions that take the respective Java objects and emit Python objects. These Python objects should also ensure that the underlying memory regions are kept alive as long as the Python objects exist.
This issue can also be used as a tracker for the various sub-tasks that will need to be done to complete this rather large milestone.

Guía de contribución
Línea de trabajo
Comience con los puntos de entrada propuestos pyarrow.Array.from_jvm y pyarrow.RecordBatch.from_jvm y, después, revise el issue relacionado con la compatibilidad con pyarrow.Array, Field y jvm_buffer. Consulte la documentación de migración y el issue del búfer bloqueado antes de elegir una subtarea. Para darlo por terminado, debe existir una ruta de conversión definida de Java a Python con gestión zero-copy de la vida útil de la memoria.
