v0.11.0

Arrow2 v0.11.0 is out!! 🎉🎉🎉

This release is mainly focus on improving upon the previous one on better parquet support. In particular, we have the main ingredients to read indexed parquet pages, which allow skipping deserializing individual pages, and since this version parquet files are written with page indexes. There is still some work to improve the frontend API to skip pages via statistics, which will be left for the next version.

This version also contains multiple bug fixes.

Thanks everyone that contributed to this release (individual PRs below)! 🙇
