• Prerequisite for Significantly improve C++ logging performance by using C FFI instead of arrow IPC #4273

Previously, not knowing about arrow::MakeBuilder, we created the hierarchy of arrow array builders manually in a utility method dubbed new_arrow_array_builder. While working on C FFI it turned out that this way we end up with an arrow array whose data type doesn't have the correct nullability settings - in other words, on creating the arrow array builders we would have needed to pass the exact data types. This is what I tried at first and it worked, but then I noticed that there's already arrow::MakeBuilder which internally uses a bunch of rolled out switch/case statements to create the hierarchy programmatically.

It turns out that this in combination with the work done on switching from IPC to C FFI gives another significant speed-up. When tested in isolation however (i.e. still on IPC), the gains seem to be rather modest and within the (large!) measurement noise.
