Review Comment:
   The `length` here should come from the physical layout. The `LogicalType` 
interface has method `IsApplicable(t parquet.Type, tlen int32) bool` that can 
validate whether the underlying type is of the right size for the logical type.
   
   In practice this means you shouldn't need to specify the length here at all. 
The arrow types above that correspond to `FixedLenByteArray` should already be 
setting `length` to the appropriate value.
   
   That raises another point. If `schema.LogicalType` is actually the only 
field that the new `LogicalType` struct needs to track, then we can skip 
defining the new struct type and just use the `schema.LogicalType` interface 
instead.
