Description

In implementing tensor types, I discovered and used the pandas extension type/array test suites. Tensors now use this in their testing, and it would be good to also implement these for nested.

Research direction

Start with the pandas extension type/array test suite documentation and inspect how tensors now use those suites in this repository. Apply the same approach to nested types, then run the relevant test suite to confirm the nested implementations pass the pandas checks.
