Array.IsValid/IsNull

Right, this computation might be a unit of work in some more general
computational pipeline, so it would be useful for this to be implemented with a
similar API to other array kernel functions

> For arrays with nulls, this amounts to returning the validity bitmap. Without
> nulls, an array of all 1 bits must be constructed. For isnull, the bits must
> be flipped (in this case, the un-set part of the new bitmap must stay 0,
> though).
