This PR improves the consistency of the C API by adding the
GeoArrowNativeWriter
to match theGeoArrowWKTWriter
andGeoArrowWKBWriter
. Before, theGeoArrowBuilder
served the purpose of both building by buffer and building by visitor, which was slightly confusing since it could be used to build WKB and WKT arrays too (except when using the visitor).This hopefully makes it more clear that the
GeoArrowArrayWriter
andGeoArrowArrayReader
are the things you want if you are reading arbitrary input/generating arbitrary output.
