Description

### Describe the enhancement requested

https://github.com/apache/arrow-java/pull/449

ORC tests segfault randomly with `Fatal glibc error: malloc.c:2599 (sysmalloc): assertion failed: (old_top == initial_top (av) && old_size == 0) || ((unsigned long) (old_size) >= MINSIZE && prev_inuse (old_top) && ((unsigned long) old_end & (pagesize - 1)) == 0)`

Research direction

Start by reviewing pull request #449 and the CI setup for the ORC JNI tests. Investigate how Valgrind or ASan can be enabled for those tests, then verify that the tests run reliably and provide useful diagnostics for the reported random glibc segmentation failure.
