             Summary: [Rust] Use slices for iterating primitive arrays
                 Key: ARROW-10989
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-10989
             Project: Apache Arrow
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Rust
            Reporter: Tyrel Rink


Iterating slices instead of indexes seems to improve performance of non-simd 
arithmetic operations.

This adds a new method raw_values_slice to PrimitiveArray (so named to pun off 
of the raw_values function which returns a pointer). A few of the functions in 
PrimitiveArray rely on the caller for safety guarantees (bounds-checks for 
value_slice, value), so should probably be unsafe? But they are used widely, so 
I thought it simpler to start by adding a safer alternative...
