Description
Temporal rounding kernels (will) allow setting of rounding origin to a greater unit. This could be made more flexible by introducing a `greater_unit` parameter which would let user select the unit serving as origin. See [this discussion](https://github.com/apache/arrow/pull/12657#issuecomment-1119580484) for more context.

Research direction
Start by locating the C++ temporal rounding kernels referenced in the issue and read the linked discussion for the intended origin-unit behavior. The change is complete when floor, ceil, and round accept a greater_unit parameter that selects the unit serving as the rounding origin.
