Description

This was skipped in ARROW-13280 because the C++ library didn't supported it, but ARROW-13345 has now been merged.

Continue to call the more efficient fixed-base kernels when the base is the scalar value e, 10, or 2. Call logb_checked when the base is a non-scalar or a scalar that's not e, 10, or 2.
