    ARROW-1533: [JAVA] realloc should consider the existing buffer capacity for 
computing target memory requirement

    cc @jacques-n , This is same as https://github.com/apache/arrow/pull/1097
    
    The latter one was closed as I had to rename the branch correctly and use 
the correct JIRA number.

> We recently encountered a problem when we were trying to add JSON files with 
> complex schema as datasets.
> Initially we started with a Float8Vector with default memory allocation of 
> (4096 * 8) 32KB.
> Went through several iterations of setSafe() to trigger a realloc() from 32KB 
> to 64KB.
> Another round of setSafe() calls to trigger a realloc() from 64KB to 128KB
> After that we encountered a BigInt and promoted our vector to UnionVector.
> This required us to create a UnionVector with BigIntVector and Float8Vector. 
> The latter required us to transfer the Float8Vector we were earlier working 
> with to the Float8Vector inside the Union.
> As part of transferTo(), the target Float8Vector got all the ArrowBuf state 
> (capacity, buffer contents) etc transferred from the source vector.
> Later, a realloc was triggered on the Float8Vector inside the UnionVector.
> The computation inside realloc() to determine the amount of memory to be 
> reallocated goes wrong since it makes the decision based on 
> allocateSizeInBytes -- although this vector was created as part of transfer() 
> from 128KB source vector, allocateSizeInBytes is still at the initial/default 
> value of 32KB
> We end up allocating a 64KB buffer and attempt to copy 128KB over 64KB and 
> seg fault when invoking setBytes().
> There is a wrong assumption in realloc() that allocateSizeInBytes is always 
> equal to data.capacity(). The particular scenario described above exposes 
> where this assumption could go wrong.
