Introduces `ExpressionNode.from_pyarrow_expression_str`.
This is required for predicate pushdown integration with polars. E.g.
when we do:
```
lf = polars.scan_arcticdb(arctic_identifier)
lf = lf.filter(pl.col("float_col") <= 40.1)
lf.collect()
```
When calling `collect` the filter will get pushed down to our (to be
implemented) `polars.scan_arcticdb` via a callback. The filter is given
as a string which can be evaluated to a pyarrow expression. For
reference string construction happens [here](https://github.com/pola-rs/polars/blob/4e286d8c83b0fcb56f0a7ea06d2eb731f179e01e/crates/polars-plan/src/plans/python/pyarrow.rs#L25).
I've decided to keep this conversion code in core arcticdb instead of
polars for a few reasons:
- Gives us more flexibility if we decide to update our `QueryBuilder`
expressions
- We'll have less code to maintain in a repository which is not ours
- Automated tests allow us to not accidentally break polars predicate
pushdown to arcticdb
For additional reference see how pyiceberg handles predicate pushdown
from polars [here](https://github.com/pola-rs/polars/blob/4e286d8c83b0fcb56f0a7ea06d2eb731f179e01e/py-polars/polars/io/iceberg.py#L197-L200)
And how this might fit in the prototype `polars.scan_arcticdb`
implementation [here](https://github.com/IvoDD/polars/pull/1/files)
