We store a redundant copy of the features in the metadata of the schema of the arrow table. This is used to recover the features when doing
Dataset.from_file
. These metadata are updated after each transfor, that changes the feature types.For each function that transforms the feature types of the dataset, I added a step in the tests to make sure the metadata in the arrow schema are up to date.
I also added a line to update the metadata directly in the Dataset.init method.
This way even a dataset instantiated with init will have a table with the right metadata.
Fix #2271.
