/// [Variable-size Binary View Layout]: https://arrow.apache.org/docs/format/Columnar.html#variable-size-binary-view-layout

/// 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:

/// Unlike [`GenericByteArray`], there are no constraints on the offsets other

/// 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
