Ok - this is a first pass at #8 that implements the functions needed to make
"build by buffer" a thing. The `ArrowBufferAppendInt8()` family of functions
helps make code that does `switch(some_arrow_type) { ... }` prettier. Rather
than make `ArrowArrayAppendInt8()`, this just exposes the internal buffer
objects and lets you do all the buffer method things you need to do (requiring
some knowledge of the spec). Rowwise builders can cache the arrow type and do
`switch (the_arrow_type) { ... }` and append accordingly.
Most of this was implemented first in #16 but it sounds like many of those
changes aren't required to get started on database driver work. This PR is
intended to be the minimum change needed to facilitate that work.
