## Describe the bug
`Dataset/DatasetDict.filter()` cannot have `batched=True` due to `mask` (numpy array?) being non-iterable.

## Steps to reproduce the bug
(In a python 3.7.12 env, I've tried 2.4.0 and 2.3.2 with both `pyarraw==9.0.0` and `pyarrow==8.0.0`.)

```python
from datasets import load_dataset


ds_mc4_ja = load_dataset("mc4", "ja")  # This will take 6+ hours... perhaps test it with a toy dataset instead?
ds_mc4_ja_2020 = ds_mc4_ja.filter(
  lambda example: example["timestamp"][:4] == "2020",
  batched=True,
)
```

## Expected results
No error

## Actual results
```python

## Environment info
<!-- You can run the command `datasets-cli env` and copy-and-paste its output below. -->
- `datasets` version: 2.4.0
- Platform: Linux-4.19.0-21-cloud-amd64-x86_64-with-debian-10.12
- Python version: 3.7.12
- PyArrow version: 9.0.0
- Pandas version: 1.3.5

(I've tried 2.4.0 and 2.3.2 with both `pyarraw==9.0.0` and `pyarrow==8.0.0`.)

Comments: Hi ! When `batched=True`, you filter function must take a batch as input, and return a list of booleans.

In your case, something like
```python
from datasets import load_dataset


ds_mc4_ja = load_dataset("mc4", "ja")  # This will take 6+ hours... perhaps test it with a toy dataset instead?
ds_mc4_ja_2020 = ds_mc4_ja.filter(
  lambda batch: [timestamp[:4] == "2020" for timestamp in batch["timestamp"]],
  batched=True,
)
```

Let me know if it helps !

Hi @lhoestq,

Ah, my bad, I totally forgot that part...
Sorry for the trouble and thank you for the kind help!
