Description

There are times when callers are in a synchronous method and need to write an Arrow stream. However, ArrowStreamWriter (and ArrowFileWriter) only expose WriteAsync methods, which means the caller needs to call the Async method, and then block on the resulting Task.

Instead, we should also expose Write methods that complete in a synchronous fashion, so the callers are free to choose the sync or async methods as they need.
