Review Comment:
   Instead of checking explictly for `< 0` I suggest we try to do the 
conversion to `usize` here rather than belpw
   
   So instead of 
   ```rust
           let mut meta_buffer = vec![0; meta_len as usize];
   ```
   
   Something like
   
   ```rust
           let Ok(meta_len) = usize::try_from(meta_len) else {
               return Err(ArrowError::ParseError(format!(
                   "Invalid metadata length: {meta_len}"
               )));
           }
           let mut meta_buffer = vec![0; meta_len];
   ```
   
   Both here and below
