[jira] [Created] (ARROW-10039) [Rust] Do not required memory alignment of buffers

Jorge created ARROW-10039:
-----------------------------

             Summary: [Rust] Do not required memory alignment of buffers
                 Key: ARROW-10039
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-10039
             Project: Apache Arrow
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Rust
            Reporter: Jorge
            Assignee: Jorge


Currently, all buffers in rust are created aligned. We also panic when a buffer is not aligned. However, [the spec|https://arrow.apache.org/docs/format/Columnar.html#buffer-alignment-and-padding] only recommends, not requires, memory alignment. 

This issue aims at following the spec more closely, by removing the requirement (not panicking) when memory passed to a buffer is not aligned.
