Review comment:
The idea is that an implementation might send codes over the wire like
[5, 10, 15, 5, 10, 15]
and then the type codes tell you that 5 is the 1st type in the union, 10 the
2nd, etc.
It was my recollection during the early Arrow days that there was a desire
for certain codes to have a fixed interpretation. e.g. "4" might always be
"JSON_STRING" in some Arrow implementation
