This feature allows users to convert Dask DataFrames (of a single type) into a DataArray that uses a Dask array. This solves a gap in the Python ecosystem around saving Dask DataFrames to Zarr which is currently not possible without loading the full dataset into memory.

This feature specifically handles the case where a DataFrame is of a single type, a xr.Dataset.from_dask_dataframe could be developed in future to handle the multi-type case.
