Cai Liuyang updated FLINK-33759:
--------------------------------
    Description: 
When we use flink-parquet format wirte Map<String, String>[] type (which will 
be read by spark job), we encounter an exception:
{code:java}
// code placeholder
org.apache.parquet.io.ParquetEncodingException: empty fields are illegal, the 
field should be ommited completely instead {code}
org.apache.parquet.io.ParquetEncodingException: empty fields are illegal, the 
field should be ommited completely instead

``, after review the code, we found flink-parquet doesn't support write nested 
array or map, because [ArrayWriter|#L437] and [MapWriter|#L391] doesn't impl 
`public void write(ArrayData arrayData, int ordinal) {}` function.
