Add `batch` method to `Dataset` class
Looks good to me ! :)

you might want to add the `map` num_proc argument as well, for people who want to make it run faster Thanks for the feedback @lhoestq! The last commits include:
- Adding the `num_proc` parameter to `batch`
- Adding tests similar to the one done for `IterableDataset.batch()`
- Updated the documentation -> I think they are actually misplaced in the `Stream` page. But could not find a better place atm. Where would you put this documentation?

WDYT? You can put the documentation in process.mdx :) The docs for this PR live [here](https://moon-ci-docs.huggingface.co/docs/datasets/pr_7064). All of your documentation changes will be reflected on that endpoint. The docs are available until 30 days after the last update. I reset the head to the commit before I added the `Dataset.batch()` documentation to `stream.mdx` and instead added the documentation to `process.mdx`.  <details>

![](https://cml.dev/watermark.png#9c98e069b47d40a219b6f27e62ed85a5bb17449e "CML watermark")

This PR introduces a new `batch` method to the `Dataset` class, aligning its functionality with the `IterableDataset.batch()` method (implemented in #7054). The implementation uses as well the existing `map` method for efficient batching of examples.

Key changes:
- Add `batch` method to `Dataset` class in `arrow_dataset.py`
- Utilize `map` method for batching

Closes #7063

Once the approach is approved, i will create the tests and update the documentation.
