@yevgenypats There's already `GetScalar(arr arrow.Array, i int)` in the
`scalar` package. This is because even if you move the interface into the
`arrow` package, you unfortunately can't actually *construct* the scalar for a
`GetScalar` method without causing a cyclic import problem.
I believe the benefit here would be to have an `UntypedValue` method that
returns the underlying value type. For a nested type, that might be an array
itself (like for a list array) or it might be an `[]interface{}` (like the case
for a struct) etc.
