Description

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-14905

The quoting style option was added for  C++, but is not supported in Python.

The C++ default for quoting style is "needed"

The pyarrow.csv writer module currently produces a CSV file where all strings are double quoted with no option to not wrap strings in double quotes.
