Issue: Sequence of array not supported for most dtype
State: closed

### Describe the bug

Create a dataset composed of sequence of array fails for most dtypes (see code below).

### Steps to reproduce the bug

```python
from datasets import Sequence, Array2D, Features, Dataset

import numpy as np

for dtype in [
    "bool",  # ok
    "int8",  # failed
    "int16",  # failed
    "int32",  # failed
    "int64",  # ok
    "uint8",  # failed
    "uint16",  # failed
    "uint32",  # failed
    "uint64",  # failed
    "float16",  # failed
    "float32",  # failed
    "float64",  # ok
]:
    features = Features({"foo": Sequence(Array2D(dtype=dtype, shape=(2, 2)))})
    sequence = [
        [[1.0, 2.0], [3.0, 4.0]],
        [[5.0, 6.0], [7.0, 8.0]],
    ]
    array = np.array(sequence, dtype=dtype)
    try:
        dataset = Dataset.from_dict({"foo": [array]}, features=features)
    except Exception as e:
        print(f"Failed for dtype={dtype}")
```

Traceback for `dtype="int8"`:

```

### Expected behavior

Not to fail.

### Environment info


- Python 3.10.6
- datasets: master branch
- Numpy: 1.23.4

Related, `float16` is the only dtype not supported by `Array2D` (probably by every `ArrayND`):

```python
from datasets import Array2D, Features, Dataset

import numpy as np

for dtype in [
    "bool",  # ok
    "int8",  # ok
    "int16",  # ok
    "int32",  # ok
    "int64",  # ok
    "uint8",  # ok
    "uint16",  # ok
    "uint32",  # ok
    "uint64",  # ok
    "float16",  # failed
    "float32",  # ok
    "float64",  # ok
]:
    features = Features({"foo": Array2D(dtype=dtype, shape=(3, 4))})
    array = np.zeros((3, 4), dtype=dtype)
    try:
        dataset = Dataset.from_dict({"foo": [array]}, features=features)
    except Exception as e:
        print(f"Failed for dtype={dtype}")
```

Here's something I can't explain:

When an array is encoded in the `from_dict` method, the numpy array is converted to a list (thus losing the original dtype, which is transfromed to the nearest builtin Python type)

https://github.com/huggingface/datasets/blob/6ee61e6e695b1df9f232d47faf3a5e2b30b33737/src/datasets/features/features.py#L524-L525

However, later on, this same data is written to memory, and it seems authorized that the data is an array (or in this case, a list of arrays). 

https://github.com/huggingface/datasets/blob/6ee61e6e695b1df9f232d47faf3a5e2b30b33737/src/datasets/arrow_writer.py#L185-L186

So the question is: why convert it to a Python list? This seems to be quite expensive both in terms of write time (all data is copied) and memory (e.g., an int8 is converted to an int64).

Finally, if I try to remove this step, it solves all the previous problems, and it seems to me that it doesn't break anything (the CI passes without problem).

Arrow only support 1d numpy arrays, so we convert multidim arrays to lists of 1s arrays (and keep the dtype).

Though you noticed that it's concerting to lists and lose the dtype. If it's the case then it's a bug.

Ok the conversion to list shouldn't be there indeed ! Could you open a PR to remove it ?
