Describe the enhancement requested

Adding a CODEOWNERS file will allow committers to be automatically requested for reviews that they are interested in (based on touched files). This also removes the burden on finding an (initial) reviewer for a PR for contributors which is a major block in the arrow dev workflow, especially for new contributors.

Note that adding a CODEOWNERS file will not automatically activate the branch protection rules to enforce a codeowner review on the respective code.

# Rationale for this change
CODEOWNERS will lift the burden of finding an initial reviewer for a PR from the contributor and enable committers to basically "subscribe" to a selection of PRs based on their interests/competence within the monorepo without having to watch _all_ notifications for the repo.

# What changes are included in this PR?

I have added a rough structure for the file and added myself to a selection of the patterns. Any committer please feel free to add yourself via suggestion or direct push to this branch.

* Closes: #33621
