[jira] [Created] (ARROW-9856) [R] Add bindings for string compute functions

Neal Richardson created ARROW-9856:
--------------------------------------

             Summary: [R] Add bindings for string compute functions
                 Key: ARROW-9856
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-9856
             Project: Apache Arrow
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: R
            Reporter: Neal Richardson


See https://arrow.apache.org/docs/cpp/compute.html#string-predicates and below. Since R's base string functions, as well as stringr/stringi, aren't generics that we can define methods for, this will probably make most sense within the context of a dplyr expression where we have more control over the evaluation.

This will require enabling utf8proc in the builds; there's already an rtools-package for it.
