Description

### Is your feature request related to a problem or challenge?

Use CRLF sequence or any other byte character from CSV option as line terminator for CSV writer.

Dual of https://github.com/apache/datafusion/issues/12215 for CSV writing/data sink.

### Describe the solution you'd like

`CsvWriterOptions` built from `CsvOptions` should carry over line terminator setting, just like other CSV options, [here](https://github.com/apache/datafusion/blob/main/datafusion/common/src/file_options/csv_writer.rs#L64-L103).

Dependant on https://github.com/apache/arrow-rs/issues/9571 that enables setting custom line terminator for CSV writer.
