Add missing schema check for createDataFrame from numpy ndarray on Spark Connect
Why are the changes needed?
Currently, the conversion from ndarray to pa.table doesn’t consider the schema at all (for e.g.).
If we handle the schema separately for ndarray -> Arrow, it will add additional complexity (for e.g.) and may introduce inconsistencies with Pandas DataFrame behavior—where in Spark Classic, the process is ndarray -> pdf -> Arrow.
To maintain consistency and simplicity, we follow this approach in Spark Connect.
Does this PR introduce any user-facing change?
Schema check and verification aligns with Spark Classic now.
How was this patch tested?
Unit tests.
Was this patch authored or co-authored using generative AI tooling?
No.
