Fixes #2017
This PR addresses a issue where Engine.register_dtype equivalents entries would be overridden due to numpy and pandas behavior where dtypes would evaluate to True if they are equal to the string representation of the dtype, e.g.
np.dtype("int64") == "int64".This led to the mapping of
pyarrow[string] -> pd.StringDtype()to being overridden by pd.ArrowDtype(pyarrow.string()).This PR fixes this by:
Introducing a
StrictEquivalentdataclass to make sure that specific registered datatype equivalents are registered under astrict_equivalentsregistry that keeps track of both the type value and its underlying type so that the problem articulated above doesn't happen.
