Which issue does this PR close?
Rationale for this change
total_buffer_bytes_used()only counts non-inlined strings (> 12 bytes), so it returns 0 for arrays of short strings. This makes it unsuitable as a capacity hint when pre-allocating output buffers (e.g. in DataFusion'sconcat()/concat_ws()).What changes are included in this PR?
Adds
total_bytes_len()toGenericByteViewArray, which sums byte lengths of all non-null values including inlined strings.Are there any user-facing changes?
