Review comment:
This is just changing a comment to align with what the code is actually
doing. I initially read the comment and thought the Rust code should assume
it's dealing only with signed integers, and then I read the CPP code and
realized the comment was out of date. This should have been updated with
b1a7a73.
I'm happy to pull [this
commit](https://github.com/apache/arrow/pull/8402/commits/5b271bd55a58d5adfde00ea4b6505f4466fe7d9a)
out into a separate PR if you'd like?
