[jira] [Created] (ARROW-5933) [C++] [Documentation] add discussion of Union.typeIds to Layout.rst

----------------------------------------

             Summary: [C++] [Documentation] add discussion of Union.typeIds to Layout.rst 
                 Key: ARROW-5933
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-5933
             Project: Apache Arrow
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: C++, Documentation
            Reporter: Benjamin Kietzman
            Assignee: Benjamin Kietzman


Union.typeIds is poorly documented and the corresponding property in UnionType is confusingly named type_codes. In particular, Layout.rst doesn't include an explanation of Union.typeIds and implies that an element of a union array's type_ids buffer is always the index of a child array.
