Module cast

Cast kernels to convert ArrayRef between supported datatypes.

See cast_with_options for more information on specific conversions.

Example:

// int32 to float64
let a = Int32Array::from(vec![5, 6, 7]);
let b = cast(&a, &DataType::Float64).unwrap();
let c = b.as_primitive::<Float64Type>();
assert_eq!(5.0, c.value(0));
assert_eq!(6.0, c.value(1));
assert_eq!(7.0, c.value(2));
