Description

**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**
The cuDF ORC writer does not follow the `set_output_as_binary` option added for Parquet to write a string column with binary type.

**Describe the solution you'd like**
To respect the `set_output_as_binary` option added in #6816 for the ORC writer as well.

**Describe alternatives you've considered**
We could copy the table to host and use the Arrow ORC writer or similar instead, but this would mean more copying.

**Additional context**
Quick demo using libcudf 23.10: https://github.com/lidavidm/cudf-orc-binary-feature-request
