   - Closes #7883.
   
   # Rationale for this change
   
   Explained in the ticket.
   **Note:** This PR will go through changes once [this 
PR](https://github.com/apache/arrow-rs/pull/7862) is merged.
   
   # What changes are included in this PR?
   
   This PR introduces two new functions `batch_json_string_to_variant` and 
`batch_variant_to_json_string` which can be used to transform batches of JSON 
strings to batches of Variant structs and vice versa. This PR attempts to 
implement `batch_variant_to_json_string` in a zero-copy way (@alamb see if you 
agree) since `variant_to_json` allows an input implementing a `Write` 
interface. `batch_json_string_to_variant` should also eventually be zero-copy 
once [this issue](https://github.com/apache/arrow-rs/issues/7805) is resolved.
   
   # Are these changes tested?
   
   Simple unit tests since the underlying functions have already been tested.
   
   # Are there any user-facing changes?
   
   Yes, it introduces the `batch_json_string_to_variant` and 
`batch_variant_to_json_string` APIs in a new crate.
