[Feature Request]: allow users to provide their own JdbcReadWithPartitionsHelper

[hughlunnon]

What would you like to happen?

at the moment, readWithPartition is limited to the data types of Long, DateTime. It would be great for users to be able to provide their own JdbcReadWithPartitionsHelper (the interface exists) to allow them to partition on other key types (eg strings).

I'm happy to add it to the java sdk, no idea if the problem exists on other sdks?

Thanks! This is a nice feature to have. For other SDK (Python) because it is configured by schema, so user cannot pass an object (like Python function) to config ReadFromJdbc
