> We use a hash table to extract unique values and dictionary indices. There
> may be an opportunity to consolidate common code from the dictionary encoding
> implementation implemented in parquet-cpp (but the dictionary indices will
> not be run-length encoded in Arrow):
> https://github.com/apache/parquet-cpp/blob/master/src/parquet/encodings/dictionary-encoding.h
> This functionality also needs to permit encoding split across multiple record
> batches -- so the hash table would be a stateful entity, and we can continue
> to hash more chunks of data to dictionary-encode multiple arrays with a
> shared dictionary at the end.
