Description
### Describe the bug, including details regarding any error messages, version, and platform.
Starting from version 20, Pyarrow has support for Azure filesystems.
ABFS URIs have this [format](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/blobs/data-lake-storage-introduction-abfs-uri): abfs[s]://@.dfs.core.windows.net//
But Pyarrow library expects the following path format for Azure: abfs[s]:////.
As you see, the part "@..core.windows.net" prevents users to use pyarrow file io in Azure environment.
