Description

@alamb

Is your feature request related to a problem or challenge? Please describe what you are trying to do.
This is part of the larger project to implement StringViewArray -- see #5374

In #5481 we added support for StringViewArray and ByteViewArray.

This ticket tracks supporting reading/writing such arrays using the IPC format (so for example, they can be sent over arrow-flight)

Describe the solution you'd like

  1. Add support for StringViewArray and BinaryViewArray to the IPC StreamReader and StreamWriter
  2. Add tests (e.g. round trip reading arrays to/from IPC streams)
  3. (ideally) add integration tests with other arrow systems (e.g. and ipc_writer.rs)

Describe alternatives you've considered
