Review Comment:

## Compatibility notes
* Feather reader and writer is deprecated in favour of the Arrow IPC API
[GH-49232](https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/49232).
## New features
* ``hypot`` compute kernel is added to Arrow compute module and accessible
in PyArrow [GH-50197](https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/50197).
* ``pa.OSFile`` now accepts open file descriptor (``int`` parameter) besides
the ``str`` path [GH-49751](https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/49751).
* Conversion from a list of individual ``numpy.ndarrays`` to a
``FixedShapeTensor``
is added [GH-49644](https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/49644).
* ``create_encryption_properties`` and ``create_decryption_properties``
methods
are added to the parquet API using Arrow C++
``FileEncryptionPropertiesBuilder``
and ``FileDecryptionPropertiesBuilder``
[GH-47435](https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/47435).
* Conversion of Table to Tensor has been implemented in Arrow C++ and can
also
be used in Python bindings
[GH-40062](https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/40062).
* ``default_column_type`` option is added to ``csv.ConvertOptions`` which
sets a
default column type for all columns and can be combined with
``column_types``
[GH-22232](https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/22232).
## Other improvements
* Extension types are supported in ``pyarrow.parquet.read_schema``
[GH-48254](https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/48254)
* Default values for Parquet `pre_buffer` are made consistent
[GH-49923](https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/49923).
## Relevant bug fixes
* ``count`` compute kernel bug for sliced union arrays is fixed
[GH-50113](https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/50113).
* ``hash_any/hash_all`` compute kernel bug is fixed for sliced
boolean arrays [GH-50043](https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/50043).
* ``Table.from_pylist`` on ``ExtensionType`` column with ``list_`` storage
crash when values exceed int32 offsets is fixed
[GH-50012](https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/50012).
* Bug causing Use-After-Free on ``PyList_SetItem`` in
`SparseCSFTensorToNdarray`
is fixed [GH-49917](https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/49917).
* Timezone drop when converting tz-aware pandas Categorical is fixed
[GH-49875](https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/49875).
* `_export_to_c` segmentation fault for `binary_view` array is fixed by
fixing cast kernels so all-inline view arrays do not keep a null variadic
buffer slot [GH-49740](https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/49740).
* `replace_with_mask` crash when null type inputs are used is
fixed [GH-47447](https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/47447).
* Segmentation fault when using ``sort_indices`` for temporal types
is fixed [GH-47252](https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/47252)
* Index level is bumped if pandas dataframe already contains
``__index_level_i__``
column [GH-46179](https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/46179).
* Special handling for single-file paths passed to ``ParquetDataset``
constructor is restored, fixing merge error in
``pyarrow.parquet.read_table``
[GH-43574](https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/43574).
## Other
* Annotations are withhold from Python wheels until they are complete
[GH-49831](https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/49831).
* PyBuffer and NumPyBuffer destructors are protected against interpreter
finalization [GH-49942](https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/49942).
* Documentation updates in
[GH-50227](https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/50227)
and [GH-20403](https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/20403).
* Tests for regular ``replace_with_mask`` kernel usage are added
[GH-50072](https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/50072).
* Hypothesis timezones test strategy now includes fixed offsets
[GH-31318](https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/31318).
