   Guys, not sure if my understanding is right, but I think this commit will 
break the design and create memory leak.
   
   If we clone the FFI struct, then it means we need to free the pointer by 
ourself, but if we free FFI_ArrowArray, then the data in this Array will also 
be free? Which means we can't free the pointer(until the data are used and 
ready to free, but in reality we can't hold this useless pointer in a big 
project for such a long time), which create memory leak.
   
   As to the question @viirya raised in #1333 , when manage memory, the one who 
allocate it should free it, which means in our case, we need to alloc the 
struct in rust and pass the pointer to java and then also free the memory in 
rust.
   
   * You can check my code in here: 
https://github.com/wangfenjin/duckdb-rs/blob/5083d39a4147f8017613304ae5f217a88ac42c2e/src/raw_statement.rs#L58
   * When I try to upgrade to version 10, [memory leak 
detected](https://github.com/wangfenjin/duckdb-rs/runs/5506654342?check_suite_focus=true)
 and there is no easy way to fix it.
   
   I suggest we revert this commit. cc @alamb @sunchao
