MutableArrayData provides an API to copy chunks of data from source arrays into an output array, it is extremely flexible, however, its performance leaves a lot to be desired. In particular its reliance on dynamic dispatch per-run not only incurs dispatch overheads, but prevents the compiler from properly vectorising the code. There are also a number of other issues relating to capacity allocation (#347), null mask handling (#1230), dictionary handling (#506)

There has been a fairly concerted effort over the last year or so to move away from use of MutableArrayData:

• Improvements to the Array Builders
• Ability to construct Array from iterators
• Specialized take and filter kernels that only use MutableArrayData as a fallback for nested types

Describe the solution you'd like

I would like to eventually deprecate and remove MutableArrayData. I think the only major blockers to this are:

• The filter kernel uses MutableArrayData as a fallback for filtering nested types
• The concat kernel uses MutableArrayData
• No kernel for interleaving multiple arrays together (take kernel that works across multiple RecordBatches #1523)

Describe alternatives you've considered

Additional context

This can be viewed through the lens of porting @jorgecarleitao 's ideas from arrow2 and bringing them into arrow-rs
