> Let ArrowBatchIterator return ArrowBatch instead of Array[Byte]

>                 Key: SPARK-54688

>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: PySpark
>    Affects Versions: 4.2.0

> Currently {{ArrowBatchIterator}} returns {{Iterator[Array[Byte]]}}, which 
> only provides the raw serialized batch bytes. This limits the ability to 
> expose batch-level metadata (e.g., row count, byte sizes) to callers without 
> re-parsing the batch.
> {code:scala}
> // Current implementation
> private[sql] class ArrowBatchIterator(...)
>     extends Iterator[Array[Byte]] with AutoCloseable {
>   
>   override def next(): Array[Byte] = {
>     // ...
>     bytes
>   }
> }
> {code}
> Propose to let it return ArrowBatch instead.
> {code:scala}
> private[sql] class ArrowBatchIterator(...)
>     extends Iterator[ArrowBatch] with AutoCloseable {
>   
>   override def next(): ArrowBatch = {
>     // ...
>     ArrowBatch(rowCount, bytes.length, bytes)
>   }
> }
> {code}
> This enables downstream consumers to access batch metadata without 
> deserializing.
