Description
BigQuery team recently [released 1.22.0](https://github.com/googleapis/google-cloud-python/releases/tag/bigquery-1.22.0) which includes the range partitioning feature (here is [an example](https://github.com/googleapis/google-cloud-python/blob/c4a69d44ccea9635b3d9d316b3f545f16538dafe/bigquery/samples/create_table_range_partitioned.py)).
WriteToBigQuery uses [`additional_bq_parameters`](https://github.com/apache/beam/blob/c1719476b74ec6f68fabea392087607adafc70ef/sdks/python/apache_beam/io/gcp/bigquery.py#L177) to create tables with date partitioning and clustering. It would be great if the same would be possible to create tables with range partitioning.
