Review comment:
       > Hmm, if we make it values: &dyn Array, how can we call 
StructArray::from or make StructArray from it? We cannot move values.
   
   I guess I was thinking we could use `array.data()` to get the `ArrayData` 
needed to construct the `StructArray`
   
   > For example, in the test, the keys is vec!["a", "b", "c", "d", "e", "f", 
"g", "h"]; and the offsets are [0, 3, 6, 8]. So it represents [[a, b, c], [d, 
e, f], [g, h]].
   
   Ah, sorry, I missed that point.
