Review comment:
       Try to improve documentation of these utilify functions here and use the 
same code style for documentation and add specific documentation for each 
function,   See example here 
https://github.com/apache/arrow/blob/41df46e3106847f81ba032e219c2854df11bbd45/cpp/src/arrow/compute/api_vector.h#L249
   
   Try to add some context, for example functions that would use  these 
functions, where they would be need to use, and in general why they need to be 
in the utility functions.
