Description
*Note*: migrated from original JIRA: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-10535
Implement big-endian support for bit slice iterators in the arrow arrays, also allow storing and interpreting data as big-endian.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by locating the bit slice iterators in the arrow arrays and inspect how their current byte ordering is handled. Done means bit slice iteration works on big-endian platforms and array data can be stored and interpreted as big-endian.
