Review Comment:
   Are you okay with the `Concatenate` error becoming a panic?
   
   I can remove the logic that allows the last offset to overflow and apply 
this fix to binary arrays as well.
   
   Also, I said I would change `int(a.offsets[expNumOffsets-2]) > 
len(a.values)` to `int(a.offsets[expNumOffsets-2]) >= len(a.values)` but that 
doesn't work if the last value in the string array is empty string. In that 
case the last offset will be equal to `len(a.values)`, so I'm going to leave it 
as I had it.
   
   > If we allow the last offset to go past the end of the data slice, it 
doesn't solve the original panic you were trying to prevent in the first place 
as calling ValueBytes would still result in an out of bounds panic in that 
situation.
   
   It actually does still solve my original panic. My original issue would be 
caught because the second-to-last offset was also past the end.
