Issue: `.to_json` is extremely slow after `.select`

## Describe the bug
Saving a dataset to JSON with `to_json` is extremely slow after using `.select` on the original dataset.

## Steps to reproduce the bug
```python
from datasets import load_dataset

original = load_dataset("squad", split="train")
original.to_json("from_original.json")  # Takes 0 seconds

selected_subset1 = original.select([i for i in range(len(original))])
selected_subset1.to_json("from_select1.json")  # Takes 212 seconds

selected_subset2 = original.select([i for i in range(int(len(original) / 2))])
selected_subset2.to_json("from_select2.json")  # Takes 90 seconds
```

Comments:
Hi ! It's slower indeed because a datasets on which `select`/`shard`/`train_test_split`/`shuffle` has been called has to do additional steps to retrieve the data of the dataset table in the right order.

Indeed, if you call `dataset.select([0, 5, 10])`, the underlying table of the dataset is not altered to keep the examples at index 0, 5, and 10. Instead, an indices mapping is added on top of the table, that says that the first example is at index 0, the second at index 5 and the last one at index 10.

Therefore accessing the examples of the dataset is slower because of the additional step that uses the indices mapping.

The step that takes the most time is to query the dataset table from a list of indices here:

https://github.com/huggingface/datasets/blob/047dc756ed20fbf06e6bcaf910464aba0e20610a/src/datasets/formatting/formatting.py#L61-L63

In your case it can be made significantly faster by checking if the indices are contiguous. If they're contiguous, we could pass a python `slice` or `range` instead of a list of integers to `_query_table`. This way `_query_table` will do only one lookup to get the queried batch instead of `batch_size` lookups.

Given that calling `select` with contiguous indices is a common use case I'm in favor of implementing such an optimization :)
Let me know what you think

Hi, thanks for the response!
I still don't understand why it is so much slower than iterating and saving:
```python
from datasets import load_dataset

original = load_dataset("squad", split="train")
original.to_json("from_original.json")  # Takes 0 seconds

selected_subset1 = original.select([i for i in range(len(original))])
selected_subset1.to_json("from_select1.json")  # Takes 99 seconds

selected_subset2 = original.select([i for i in range(int(len(original) / 2))])
selected_subset2.to_json("from_select2.json")  # Takes 47 seconds

selected_subset3 = original.select([i for i in range(len(original)) if i % 2 == 0])
selected_subset3.to_json("from_select3.json")  # Takes 49 seconds

import json
import time
def fast_to_json(dataset, path):
    start = time.time()
    with open(path, mode="w") as f:
        for example in dataset:
            f.write(json.dumps(example, separators=(',', ':')) + "\n")
    end = time.time()
    print(f"Saved {len(dataset)} examples to {path} in {end - start} seconds.")

fast_to_json(original, "from_original_fast.json")
fast_to_json(selected_subset1, "from_select1_fast.json")
fast_to_json(selected_subset2, "from_select2_fast.json")
fast_to_json(selected_subset3, "from_select3_fast.json")
```
```
Saved 87599 examples to from_original_fast.json in 8 seconds.
Saved 87599 examples to from_select1_fast.json in 10 seconds.
Saved 43799 examples to from_select2_fast.json in 6 seconds.
Saved 43800 examples to from_select3_fast.json in 5 seconds.
```

There are slight differences between what you're doing and what `to_json` is actually doing.
In particular `to_json` currently converts batches of rows (as an arrow table) to a pandas dataframe, and then to JSON Lines. From your benchmark it looks like it's faster if we don't use pandas.

Thanks for investigating, I think we can optimize `to_json` significantly thanks to your test.

Thanks for your observations, @eladsegal! I spent some time with this and tried different approaches. Turns out that https://github.com/huggingface/datasets/blob/bb13373637b1acc55f8a468a8927a56cf4732230/src/datasets/io/json.py#L100 is giving the problem when we use `to_json` after `select`. This is when `indices` parameter in `query_table` is not `None` (if it is `None` then `to_json` should work as expected)

In order to circumvent this problem, I found out instead of doing Arrow Table -> Pandas-> JSON we can directly go to JSON by using `to_pydict()` which is a little slower than the current approach but at least `select` works properly now. Lmk what you guys think of it @lhoestq, @eladsegal?

Sounds good to me ! Feel free to also share your benchmarks for reference @bhavitvyamalik
