How to make 3rd party rust types available to the VM #5459

Summary

I'm building a little data processing application, in which I'd like be able to add data transformations that are written in python but will be executed by rust under the hood. Eventually I want provide a polars dataframe, and modify it via python.

Something like this:

def transform(df):
    df = df.with_columns(
        (pl.col("x") * 2).alias("twice")
    ).collect()
    
    return df

I'm already hitting a road block getting the dataframe in and out of the VM. I tried to build on top of the call_between_rust_and_python example, but it only works with types that are already supported by rustpython or on simple types that are composed of supported types.

I'd be very happy if you'd nugde me into the right direction, given if it's actually possible what I'm trying to achieve.
