Description
Support official arrow file extensions
Arrow has officially registered a mime type and file extensions of .arrow for the ipc file format and .arrows for ipc streaming format. We should support the mime type in geoserver requests, set it in files we create where appropriate, and support files named .arrows as well as our current .arrow in the geomesa-arrow CLI.
