Description
We are using `Unsafe.As` to cast a `Memory` to a `Memory`, and on .NET Framework this doesn't work.
https://github.com/dotnet/corefxlab/blob/86fa8eeb25d8e730ff204e3f017e230b802c9b50/src/Microsoft.Data.Analysis/ReadOnlyDataFrameBuffer.cs#L26-L33
Later, when we use this memory object, it throws:
```
System.InvalidCastException : Unable to cast object of type 'System.Byte[]' to type 'System.Int32[]'.
Stack Trace:
ReadOnlyMemory`1.get_Span()
BufferTests.TestArrowStringColumnGetReadOnlyBuffers() line 264
```
We need to figure out a better way to implement this method.
