Rationale for this change

The Python documentation explains the PyCapsule Interface (__arrow_c_schema__, __arrow_c_array__, __arrow_c_stream__), but lacks an ecosystem implementation status table showing which libraries have adopted the protocol. Issue #47696 requested adding an implementation status table based on tracking in #39195.

Per maintainer feedback in #47696 and PR #49550, every single listed library has been individually audited and updated against its upstream repository and latest release status rather than simply copying the initial table snapshot:

• Audit & Status updates: Updated libraries that have implemented or merged support (e.g. Daft in feat: Arrow PyCapsule Interface Eventual-Inc/Daft#6745, Vortex in feat(python): Write PyArrow types directly to Vortex vortex-data/vortex#4161, Xarray in feat: add __arrow_c_stream__ function pydata/xarray#11338, Streamlit in Add support for PyCapsule streamlit/streamlit#13242, PySpark in [SPARK-54337][PS] Add support for PyCapsule to Pyspark spark#53391).
• Added missing implementations: Added libraries from community contributions in [Python] Promote usage of the Arrow PyCapsule Protocol (for the C Data Inteface) #39195 including streamlit, jupyter-scatter, pyfru, and minarrow.
• Accurate direct links: Linked directly to official documentation or merged implementation PRs (such as arro3 docs instead of raw issue comments).
• Alphabetical sorting and clean format: Uses an alphabetical .. list-table:: with checkmarks (✓ / ✗).

What changes are included in this PR?

• Added a comprehensive PyCapsule Interface Implementation Status table containing 33 ecosystem libraries to docs/source/python/extending_types.rst.
• Linked each library directly to its implementation PR, issue, or documentation.

Are these changes tested?

Documentation-only change. ReStructuredText syntax validated with docutils.

Are there any user-facing changes?

Yes, a new "PyCapsule Interface Implementation Status" reference table is visible in the Python documentation under the "Extending PyArrow" section.
