Fugue support for extra helper functions from core

[fdosani]

Currently there are some helper functions as part of the core Pandas code which I think are generally very helpful.
We need to spend some time exploring those and seeing which ones can be mirrored/included via the Fugue implementation.

This is just a list of most of the functions. Not all will make sense to move over. But we should investigate which ones make sense to:

• df1_unq_columns (adding in unq_columns and intersect_columns for Fugue #217)
• df2_unq_columns (adding in unq_columns and intersect_columns for Fugue #217)
• intersect_columns (adding in unq_columns and intersect_columns for Fugue #217)
• all_columns_match (adding in all_columns_match #219)
• all_rows_overlap (adding all_rows_overlap to fugue #244)
• count_matching_rows (Fugue count matching rows #294)
• intersect_rows_match
• matches (is_match)
• subset
• sample_mismatch
• all_mismatch
• columns_equal
• compare_string_and_date_columns

Need to look into a bit more. low prio for now.

• get_merged_columns
• temp_column_name
• calculate_max_diff
• generate_id_within_group

@goodwanghan @kvnkho FYI, no pressure to contribute, but something in our backlog I'm thinking to ensure full parity in terms of function etc.

Sounds good, let's chat about it

Closing this issue as it is stale.
