[ARROW-7818] [C++][Gandiva] Generate Filter kernels from gandiva code at compile time

• Type: New Feature
• Status: Open
• Priority: Major
• Resolution: Unresolved
• Component/s: C++, C++ - Gandiva

Description

The goal of this feature is to support generating kernels at compile time (and possibly runtime if gandiva is linked) to avoid rewriting C++ kernels that gandiva knows how to compile. The generated kernels would be linked in the compute module.

This is an experimental task that will guide future development, notably implementing aggregate kernels in gandiva once instead both C++ and gandiva implementations.
