Research direction
Start with the serde implementation added by PR 8627 and the advanced writer options listed in datafusion.proto. Trace how WriterProperties is represented, then cover key_value_metadata, default_column_properties, column_properties, sorting_columns, and column_index_truncate_length; done means each listed option supports serde consistently with the existing properties.
