# Which issue does this PR close?
<!--
We generally require a GitHub issue to be filed for all bug fixes and
enhancements and this helps us generate change logs for our releases. You can
link an issue to this PR using the GitHub syntax.

- Closes None
# Rationale for this change
<!--
Why are you proposing this change? If this is already explained clearly in
the issue then this section is not needed.
Explaining clearly why changes are proposed helps reviewers understand your
changes and offer better suggestions for fixes.
-->
We internally found `RowNumberReader` to be a hot path in some of our
queries. Flamegraphs showed ~70% of the cpu time taken by methods in
`RowNumberReader`.
These can be made an order of magnitude faster (benchmarks below).
# What changes are included in this PR?
<!--
There is no need to duplicate the description in the issue here but it is
sometimes worth providing a summary of the individual changes in this PR.
-->
- Instead of storing an iterator over individual row numbers, we now store a
vec of ranges.
- These ranges are not materialized into a fully array until needed.
- `read_records` was previously linear in terms of number of rows read.
- Now it's close to constant since one batch (8192 rows) usually is
satisfied by one row range (which comes from a row group).
- Same for `skip_records`
- `consume_batch` is still linear in terms of rows, but it is faster since
it can pre-allocate the output vec.
- Previously, the `Flatten` iter would have prevented it pre-allocating
(it's not an `ExactSizeIterator`).
# Are these changes tested?
<!--
We typically require tests for all PRs in order to:
1. Prevent the code from being accidentally broken by subsequent changes
2. Serve as another way to document the expected behavior of the code
If tests are not included in your PR, please explain why (for example, are
they covered by existing tests)?
-->
- Yes, added more unit tests
- I have some benchmarks at https://github.com/Samyak2/arrow-rs/pull/1, but
they need `RowNumberReader` to be pub, so I've not included them here
