Approximately %80 of runtime when loading "low column count, high row
count" DataFrames into Datasets is consumed in `np.fromiter`, called
as part of the `Dataset.get_field` method.

This is particularly pernicious hotspot, as unlike other ctypes-based
methods this is a hot loop over a python iterator loop and causes
significant GIL-contention in multi-threaded applications.

Replace `np.fromiter` with a direct call to `np.ctypeslib.as_array`,
which allows a single-shot `copy` of the underlying array.

This reduces the load time of a ~35 million row categorical dataframe
with 1 column from ~5 seconds to ~1 second, and allows multi-threaded
execution.
