Review Comment:
As it is currently implemented, the run-end index size isn't explicitly part
of the type and is instead just an implementation detail in that the first
child (containing the run-ends) can be any of int16/int32/int64. For example,
note how List doesn't encode the child type and struct doesn't encode the child
fields.
At least that's my understanding of why.
