[BUG] Update usage of cudf.core.column.arange to cudf.core.column.as_column

[vyasr]

Describe the bug
Tests are currently failing in CI, see e.g. #564. The failures are because cuxfilter uses an internal method of cudf that was removed in rapidsai/cudf#14689. The errors can be fixed by replacing those usages in the same fashion as was done internally in that cudf PR.

@vyasr actually this is an issue with cuspatial's usage of arange, which is a direct dependency for cuxfilter. I'll create a PR for cuspatial to fix it

[AjayThorve]

Added a PR to fix this issue in cuspatial : rapidsai/cuspatial#1323

Update: Merged

[AjayThorve]

tests pass now: https://github.com/rapidsai/cuxfilter/actions/runs/7538330530

Thanks! I had opened a cuspatial issue as well but didn't realize cuxfilter's problem was via usage of cuspatial.
