Review Comment:
   Hmm sorry, not sure I understand this. I think it would still be valuable to 
have a function similar to `unary` but works for dictionary arrays? `unary_dyn` 
bridges the gap by taking an `ArrayRef` as input so users don't have to do the 
special handling of dictionary array. Otherwise, I guess they all have to 
repeat the steps of:
   ```rust
       if let Some(d) = a.as_any_dictionary_opt() {
           // Recursively handle dictionary input
           let r = my_kernel(d.values().as_ref())?;
           return Ok(d.with_values(r));
       }
   ```
   
   by themselves?
