   I want to enable the python side tests for Azure but there are a couple of 
failures. 
   1. Move operations are not supported yet. 
https://github.com/apache/arrow/pull/39904 looks like its almost done I believe 
this will implement file and directory moves for hierarchical namespace 
accounts but not for flat namespace. These tests run against azurite, which is 
flat namespace so https://github.com/apache/arrow/pull/39904 actually won't 
solve this. We should at least add support for file moves to get parity with S3 
and GCS.
   2. Currently we can't read metadata set by the user, only system metadata 
generated by azure. This is explained here 
https://github.com/Tom-Newton/arrow/blob/8d6b96d7269a57317068cbaa59d2ff80d65be1a7/cpp/src/arrow/filesystem/azurefs.cc#L334-L346
   
   I'm hoping its ok to skip these for Azure initially. I can create Github 
issues to get these ironed out.
