Revert the changes in `arrow_writer.py` from #6636

#6636 broke `write_examples_on_file` and `write_batch` from the class `ArrowWriter`. I'm undoing these changes. See #6663.

Note the current implementation doesn't keep the order of the columns and the schema, thus setting a wrong schema for each column.

> Hi! We can't revert this as the "reverted" implementation has quadratic time complexity. Instead, let's fix it:

I agree, but it's the implementation we have had so far. Why don't we:
1. Release a hotfix ASAP (since would be doing a revert, we know it works as before) so people can continue using this library fine since AFAIU right now mostly writing examples for people is broken.
2. Then, focus on still applying the performance improvement and release again

The fix is straightforward, so one patch release (after this PR is merged) is enough.

Btw, let's also add a test to `tests/test_arrow_writer.py` to avoid this issue in the future.

Would you mind adding such test, as you're more familiar with the codebase?
