/// [Variable-size Binary View Layout]: An array of variable length bytes views.
///
/// This array type is used to store variable length byte data (e.g. Strings, Binary)
/// and has efficient operations such as `take`, `filter`, and comparison.
///
/// [Variable-size Binary View Layout]: https://arrow.apache.org/docs/format/Columnar.html#variable-size-binary-view-layout
///
/// This is different from [`GenericByteArray`], which also stores variable
/// length byte data, as it represents strings with an offset and length. `take`
/// and `filter` like operations are implemented by manipulating the "views"
/// (`u128`) without modifying the bytes. Each view also stores an inlined
/// prefix which speed up comparisons.
///
/// # See Also
///
/// * [`StringViewArray`] for storing utf8 encoded string data
/// * [`BinaryViewArray`] for storing bytes
/// * [`ByteView`] to interpret `u128`s layout of the views.
///
/// [`ByteView`]: arrow_data::ByteView
///
/// # Layout: "views" and buffers
///
/// A `GenericByteViewArray` stores variable length byte strings. An array of
/// `N` elements is stored as `N` fixed length "views" and a variable number
/// of variable length "buffers".
///
/// Each view is a `u128` value whose layout is different depending on the
/// length of the string stored at that location:
///
/// ```text

/// ```
///
/// * Strings with length <= 12 are stored directly in the view. See
///   [`Self::inline_value`] to access the inlined prefix from a short view.
///
/// * Strings with length > 12: The first four bytes are stored inline in the
///   view and the entire string is stored in one of the buffers. See [`ByteView`]
///   to access the fields of the these views.
///
/// As with other arrays, the optimized kernels in [`arrow_compute`] are likely
/// the easiest and fastest way to work with this data. However, it is possible
/// to access the views and buffers directly for more control.
///
/// For example
///
/// ```rust
/// # use arrow_array::StringViewArray;
/// # use arrow_array::Array;
/// use arrow_data::ByteView;
/// let array = StringViewArray::from(vec![
///   "hello",
///   "this string is longer than 12 bytes",
///   "this string is also longer than 12 bytes"
/// ]);
///
/// // ** Examine the first view (short string) **
/// assert!(array.is_valid(0)); // Check for nulls
/// let short_view: u128 = array.views()[0]; // "hello"
/// // get length of the string
/// let len = short_view as u32;
/// assert_eq!(len, 5); // strings less than 12 bytes are stored in the view
/// // SAFETY: `view` is a valid view
/// let value = unsafe {
///   StringViewArray::inline_value(&short_view, len as usize)
/// };
/// assert_eq!(value, b"hello");
///
/// // ** Examine the third view (long string) **
/// assert!(array.is_valid(12)); // Check for nulls
/// let long_view: u128 = array.views()[2]; // "this string is also longer than 12 bytes"
/// let len = long_view as u32;
/// assert_eq!(len, 40); // strings longer than 12 bytes are stored in the buffer
/// let view = ByteView::from(long_view); // use ByteView to access the fields
/// assert_eq!(view.length, 40);
/// assert_eq!(view.buffer_index, 0);
/// assert_eq!(view.offset, 35); // data starts after the first long string
/// // Views for long strings store a 4 byte prefix
/// let prefix = view.prefix.to_le_bytes();
/// assert_eq!(&prefix, b"this");
/// let value = array.value(2); // get the string value (see `value` implementation for how to access the bytes directly)
/// assert_eq!(value, "this string is also longer than 12 bytes");
/// ```
///
/// [`arrow_compute`]: https://docs.rs/arrow/latest/arrow/compute/index.html
///
/// Unlike [`GenericByteArray`], there are no constraints on the offsets other
/// than they must point into a valid buffer. However, they can be out of order,
/// non continuous and overlapping.
///
/// For example, in the following diagram, the strings "FishWasInTownToday" and
/// "CrumpleFacedFish" are both longer than 12 bytes and thus are stored in a
/// separate buffer while the string "LavaMonster" is stored inlined in the
/// view. In this case, the same bytes for "Fish" are used to store both strings.
