(This section helps Arrow developers understand the context and why for this feature, in addition to the what)

sometimes it's not that easy to know the output type. e.g.

select now();
+----------------------------+
| now()                      |
+----------------------------+
| 2022-08-10 06:36:01.967605 |
+----------------------------+
1 row in set. Query took 0.000 seconds.

i thought that it's a Timestamp(Nanosecond, None) until

select now() + 1;
Plan("'Timestamp(Nanosecond, Some(\"UTC\")) + Int64' can't be evaluated because there isn't a common type to coerce the types to")

Describe the solution you'd like
A clear and concise description of what you want to happen.

A arrow_typeof to output the type like this

select arrow_typeof(now());
+---------------------------------------+
| arrowtypeof(now())                    |
+---------------------------------------+
| Timestamp(Nanosecond, Some("UTC")     |
+---------------------------------------+
1 row in set. Query took 0.000 seconds.
