Review Comment:
It almost seems like there's actually no need for the third enum variant
because an array element builder should never experience an `append_null` call
in the first place? If so, we only could rely on that structural invariant to
handle variant arrays, and we only need a boolean to control whether
`append_null` causes `nulls.append_null` (top-level) vs.
`nulls.append_non_null` (object field), with an unconditional
`value_builder.append_null()`?
But I wonder what the actual call stack/object hierarchy is in these various
cases? Maybe I'm misunderstanding the layout and how the various builders
relate to each other.
