Spun off from discussion in #68

Find way to preserve dictionary encoding in DictionaryArray without having to cast to StringArray as introduced here:

// Cast back to StringArray to ensure all stripes have consistent datatype
// TODO: Is there anyway to preserve the dictionary encoding?
// This costs performance.
let array = cast(&array, &DataType::Utf8).context(ArrowSnafu)?;

Some reference from similar parquet issue: apache/arrow-rs#171
