Review Comment:
   Probably `struct TypedArrayRef { value: ArrayRef, field: FieldRef }` is best 
for now (keeping the `FieldRef`-is-a-type bit opaque). Using FieldRefs as types 
in DataFusion has mostly led to a lot of cloned metadata and heterogeneity with 
respect to how the name/metadata/nullability should propagate (or not) but it 
does seem to be the path of least resistance.
