----------------------------------

             Summary: [C++] Implement functions to conform unequal dictionaries 
amongst multiple Arrow arrays
                 Key: ARROW-554
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-554
             Project: Apache Arrow
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: C++
            Reporter: Wes McKinney


We may wish to either

* Conform the dictionary indices to reference a common dictionary
* Concatenate indices into a new array with a common dictionary

This is related to in-memory dictionary encoding, as you start with a 
partially-built dictionary and then add entries as you observe new ones in 
other dictionaries, all the while "rebasing" indices to consistently reference 
the same dictionary at the end
