ARROW-5342: [Format] Formalize "extension types" in Arrow protocol metadata This patch proposes a language-independent scheme for annotating built-in Arrow types with a custom type name and serialized representation, per previous discussions on the mailing list.

Author: Wes McKinney <wesm+git@apache.org> Closes #4332 from wesm/ARROW-5342 and squashes the following commits: ff7ca2c37 <Wes McKinney> Fix formatting issue and missing backtick 4d0317482 <Wes McKinney> Add language to formalize extension type machinery. Change C++ metadata key names to use ARROW: prefix
