The pr looks good to me, left some minor comments

Maybe just build_array_string!(StringViewArray, Utf8View)?
Can you also move this case closer to where we handle Utf8 and LargeUtf8?

Should we handle (Utf8View, Utf8), (Utf8, Utf8View) etc?
It's possible that we read a StringViewArray from parquet, and compare it against a Utf8. What do you think the result type should look like? @alamb

I agree we should permit to/coercion from any "string" / "binary" type to the associated view type.

It is probably good to make sure the coercion does the cheap direction when possible

For example, we shouldn't be converting StringViewArray --> StringArray as that will copy all the strings. Instead we should convert StringArray --> StringViewArray which is relatively cheap (we just have to copy the views)

I think this feature -- coercion -- is probably worth its own ticket and doesn't need to be done in this PR. I'll file a follow on ticket in the morning

I handled the Utf8View coercion in this PR, but it would be better to handle the BinaryView in a follow-up.

The problem with (Utf8View, Utf8) is that it can be quite common to have the following queries:

select * from t where c1 <> 'small';

Where the c1 is read to be StringViewArray, then we need to decide what is the result type (in order to implement the coercion). I agree with @alamb that StringViewArray is generally cheaper than StringArray, so we might just use Utf8View if at least one operand is using Utf8View.

I handled the Utf8View coercion in this PR, but it would be better to handle the BinaryView in a follow-up.

Filed #10996 to track Binary view support

I wrote a bunch of tests in #10997 and the coercion mostly seems to work well. There is one exception which i think is minor and i will file a ticket about

Thanks @Weijun-H -- I think once @XiangpengHao 's comments are addressed this PR will be good to go. 🙏

I think for this test to run, we need to add (Utf8View, Utf8) => Utf8View, see #10985 (comment)

Thank you @XiangpengHao -- I think this pR is a good step forward and so I think we should merge it into the string-view branch to keep making progress.

I will do so and file some follow on issues to track remaining work (specifically for coercion and BinaryView)
