Hello,

It seems ArrayBuilder::Advance has never been terribly useful, since the user has no obvious way of getting data pointers to the various underlying buffers. Furthermore, it's almost untested and potentially buggy (see https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-14065).

I therefore propose that we deprecate ArrayBuilder::Advance. Users who want sophisticated control over array creation can instead use the various BufferBuilder facilities directly.

Regards

Antoine.
