### Describe the bug, including details regarding any error messages,
version, and platform.
Hi Arrow Devs.
I noticed an odd behavior for `str_starts()` for the package.
So if you make an `arrow` table:
```
df <- data.frame(
Participant = c('Greg', 'Greg', 'Donna', 'Donna'),
Category = c('F0', 'C0.1', '1', '01'),
Rating = c(21, NA, 17, 21)) |> as_arrow_table()
```
|Participant | Category | Rating|
|--- | --- | ---|
|Greg | F0 | 21|
|Greg | C0.0 | NA|
|Donna | 1 | 17|
|Donna | 01 | 21|
And want to filter the output to entries that start with several specific
strings like so
`filterlist <- c("F", "C", "1")`
|Participant | Category | Rating|
|--- | --- | ---|
|Greg | F0 | 21|
|Greg | C0.0 | NA|
|Donna | 1 | 17|
If I run a call like this one, it either fails or pulls it into `R`:
```
df |>
filter(str_starts(Category, paste(filterlist, collapse = "|")))
Warning: Expression str_starts(Category, paste(filterlist, collapse = "|"))
not supported in Arrow; pulling data into R
```
But these two will run just fine and produce the desired output:
```
df |>
filter(str_starts(Category, "F|C|1"))
df |>
filter(str_starts(Category, filtervar))
```
Is this a bug of some kind?
