Description
### Description
Currently it is not possible to ingest a column as an array of array.
However, it is possible to create an ARRAY_AGG of ARRAY.
### Motivation
Rather than use ARRAY of json or string, it will be preferable to use directly ARRAY of ARRAY
Contributor guide
Research direction
The issue does not name any files, tests, or entry points. Start by tracing Druid's ingestion handling for array columns and the existing ARRAY_AGG of ARRAY behavior; the work is done when a column can be ingested directly as an array of arrays without using JSON or strings.
