   All `Array` implementations must implement the `JsonEqual` trait. However:
   
   - UnionArray will always panic
   - DictionaryArray is incorrect (#2294)
   - It is unclear to me why we would special case JSON
   - It complicates making JSON an optional feature
   
   **Describe the solution you'd like**

   Rather than maintaining parallel logic to interpret `serde_json::Value` as 
arrow arrays, I wonder if we can just remove the `JsonEqual` functionality and 
encourage conversion to arrow arrays. I'm unclear of a use-case that would 
require highly-performant comparison of arrow and JSON data
