## Which issue does this PR close? This addresses part of https://github.com/apache/datafusion/issues/17035 This is also a blocker for https://github.com/apache/datafusion/issues/20450 ## Rationale for this change Currently we cannot support user defined configuration extensions via FFI. This is because much of the infrastructure on how to add and extract custom extensions relies on knowing concrete types of the extensions. This is not supported in FFI. This PR adds an implementation of configuration extensions that can be used across a FFI boundary. ## What changes are included in this PR? - Implement `FFI_ExtensionOptions`. - Update `ConfigOptions` to check if a `datafusion_ffi` namespace exists when setting values - Add unit test ## Are these changes tested? Unit test added. Also tested against `datafusion-python` locally. With this code I have the following test that passes. I have created a simple python exposed `MyConfig`: ```python from datafusion import SessionConfig from datafusion_ffi_example import MyConfig def test_catalog_provider(): config = MyConfig() config = SessionConfig().with_extension(config) config.set("my_config.baz_count", "42") ``` ## Are there any user-facing changes? New addition only.
Apache DataFusion
DataFusion is an extensible query engine written in Rust that uses Apache Arrow as its in-memory format.
This crate provides libraries and binaries for developers building fast and feature-rich database and analytic systems, customized for particular workloads. See use cases for examples. The following related subprojects target end users:
- DataFusion Python offers a Python interface for SQL and DataFrame queries.
- DataFusion Comet is an accelerator for Apache Spark based on DataFusion.
"Out of the box," DataFusion offers SQL and DataFrame APIs, excellent performance, built-in support for CSV, Parquet, JSON, and Avro, extensive customization, and a great community.
DataFusion features a full query planner, a columnar, streaming, multi-threaded, vectorized execution engine, and partitioned data sources. You can customize DataFusion at almost all points including additional data sources, query languages, functions, custom operators and more. See the Architecture section for more details.

What can you do with this crate?
DataFusion is great for building projects such as domain-specific query engines, new database platforms and data pipelines, query languages and more. It lets you start quickly from a fully working engine, and then customize those features specific to your needs. See the list of known users.

DataFusion API Evolution and Deprecation Guidelines
Public methods in Apache DataFusion evolve over time: while we try to maintain a stable API, we also improve the API over time. As a result, we typically deprecate methods before removing them, according to the deprecation guidelines.
Dependencies and Cargo.lock
