an interior NUL in a struct field name aborted the process when the schema was exported over the arrow c ffi: arrow copies the name into a `CString` in a non-unwinding context, so the failure escalated to `SIGABRT`. `to_arrow_schema` and `ArrowSession::to_arrow_field` now reject such names, returning a `VortexError` instead.

Summary
A struct field name with an interior NUL byte aborted the whole process (
SIGABRT) when the schema was exported across the Arrow C Data FFI: arrow-rs copies the name into aCStringin a non-unwinding context, soCString::newfailing on the NUL escalated to an abort instead of an error (#8652).to_arrow_schema/to_data_type_naiveandArrowSession::to_arrow_fieldnow reject a NUL byte in a field name up front, so a crafted or mislabeled file surfaces a recoverableVortexErrorinstead of taking down the reader.This rejects only NUL, the byte that actually aborts (other control characters are valid in a
CString), and guards the Arrow export boundary rather than the writer, so it also covers aDTypefrom a non-Vortex producer.Closes: #8652
Testing
Added tests that
to_arrow_schema(top-level and nested struct) andArrowSession::to_arrow_fieldreject a NUL field name.cargo nextest run -p vortex-arraypasses;fmt --all+clippy --all-targets --all-featuresclean.I'm Korean, so sorry if any wording reads a little awkward.
