Description
High level description:
- The documentation here says that setting column_types disables type inference.
- Under the hood I can see why it is clear you need to also set ReadOptions.column_names to support all current use cases however it is unclear to new users of the library when you read the docs. Especially since you can supply a Schema object to column_types in the Python bindings.
- Suggested change: update the csv.ConvertOptions to note that you also must set csv.ReadOptions.column_names in order to disable type inference.
