> [Format] Support 32- and 64-bit decimals in IPC messages

> Key: ARROW-2009

> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Format
> Reporter: Wes McKinney
> Priority: Major
>
> Some systems may wish to send 32- or 64-bit decimal values on the wire
> without any conversions. Computations engines using Arrow may choose to
> promote these to 128-bit right away on receipt, but it would be useful to be
> enable systems with native handling of the smaller-size types to be able to
> send data via Arrow streams / IPC without extra serialization
