Description

We now have native ODBC support upstream. This has to be exposed in polars similarly to existing IO readers and writers.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Study the existing Arrow2 ODBC support in the polars arrow repository and then implement reader/writer modules following the pattern of other IO implementations like CSV or Parquet.
