    After think about it, we can't support very long array in 
`UnsafeArrayData`, as the offset region only use 4 bytes to encode the value 
offset. I'm going to add a validation so that we won't overflow if given a big 
array.
    
    Actually we can improve the unsafe format for array data, which is similar 
to unsafe row:
    ```
    [null bits] [values] [variable length portion]
    ```
    
    One difference is that, the `values` region in unsafe row is 8-byte per 
field, but for array, it should depend on the data size, e.g. 1 byte for 
boolean. Then we can just memory copy primitive array into `values` region and 
no need to care about the offset region.
