This PR is a proposal to fix issue #54:
method _format_str was added to _PandasColumn with mapping of basic string formats from NumPy to Apache Arrow C Data Interface.

Thanks a lot @AlenkaF. Given that after gh-81 the implementation has been removed from this repo, and Pandas now has its own implementation merged (with significant improvements compared to the prototype that this PR was refactoring), I will close this PR.

We did learn quite a bit from your Vaex implementation work. Thanks for opening this PR, and apologies it did not get merged last year.

I will leave gh-54 open until we've verified that there's a test for this in https://github.com/data-apis/dataframe-interchange-tests, so we ensure that all four known implementations are indeed using the Arrow format strings.
