Research direction

Start in the arrow-jdbc adapter's type-mapping path and inspect how it handles types returned by the driver that are not recognized. Read the related ADBC issue 956 for additional context. Done means unrecognized driver types can be emitted as binary columns without changing recognized type handling.
