> When trying to write a column of parquet lists, if there is a NULL list, WriteBatchSpaced will either throw an error (case 1 below) or incorrectly write the last value in the last list as the first value from the first list (case 2 below).
>  
> Schema:
> message schema {
>   optional group _COL_0 (LIST) {
>     repeated group list {
>       optional binary item (UTF8);
>     }
>   }
> }
>  
> *CASE 1*
> Data (3 lists):
> [
>    "one"
> ]
> null
> [
>    "two"
> ]
>  
> Parameters to TypedColumnWriter<PhysicalType<parquet::Type::BYTE_ARRAY>>::WriteBatchSpaced:
>  # num_values: 3
>  # def_levels: [3, 0, 3]
>  # rep_levels: [0, 0, 0]
>  # valid_bits: 0x05 (bit representation 101)
>  # valid_bits_offset: 0 
>  # values: ["one", nullptr, "two"]
> When I use WriteBatchSpaced(num_values, def_levels, rep_levels, valid_bits, valid_bits_offset, values), I get the following error when running [parquet-tools|https://github.com/apache/parquet-mr/tree/master/parquet-tools] on the outputted parquet file:

> Additionally, if I add another list into the data that I write, then the last element of that additional list is incorrectly written as the first element of the first list. See below.

> Data (4 lists):

> null
> [

> [

>    "four"

> Here we see that the "four" in the last list actually shows up as "one".
