Data in the buffer is guaranteed to be contiguous in memory.
Note that there is no dtype attribute present, a buffer can be thought of
as simply a block of memory. However, if the column that the buffer is
attached to has a dtype that's supported by DLPack and ``__dlpack__`` is
implemented, then that dtype information will be contained in the return
value from ``__dlpack__``.
This distinction is useful to support both (a) data exchange via DLPack on a
buffer and (b) dtypes like variable-length strings which do not have a
fixed number of bytes per element.

class ProtocolColumn(ABC):
"""
A column object, with only the methods and properties required by the interchange protocol defined.
A column can contain one or more chunks. Each chunk can contain up to three
buffers - a data buffer, a mask buffer (depending on null representation),
and an offsets buffer (if variable-size binary; e.g., variable-length strings).
TBD: Arrow has a separate "null" dtype, and has no separate mask concept.
Instead, it seems to use "children" for both columns with a bit mask,
and for nested dtypes. Unclear whether this is elegant or confusing.
This design requires checking the null representation explicitly.
The Arrow design requires checking:
1. the ARROW_FLAG_NULLABLE (for sentinel values)
2. if a column has two children, combined with one of those children
having a null dtype.
Making the mask concept explicit seems useful. One null dtype would
not be enough to cover both bit and byte masks, so that would mean
even more checking if we did it the Arrow way.
TBD: there's also the "chunk" concept here, which is implicit in Arrow as
multiple buffers per array (= column here). Semantically it may make
sense to have both: chunks were meant for example for lazy evaluation
of data which doesn't fit in memory, while multiple buffers per column
could also come from doing a selection operation on a single
contiguous buffer.
Given these concepts, one would expect chunks to be all of the same
size (say a 10,000 row dataframe could have 10 chunks of 1,000 rows),
while multiple buffers could have data-dependent lengths. Not an issue
in pandas if one column is backed by a single NumPy array, but in
Arrow it seems possible.
Are multiple chunks *and* multiple buffers per column necessary for
the purposes of this interchange protocol, or must producers either
reuse the chunk concept for this or copy the data?
Notes
-----
This ProtocolColumn object can only be produced by ``__dataframe__``,
so doesn't need its own version or ``__column__`` protocol.

Dtype description as a tuple ``(kind, bit-width, format string, endianness)``.
* Kind : DTypeKind
* Bit-width : the number of bits as an integer
* Format string : data type description format string in Apache Arrow C
Data Interface format.
* Endianness : current only native endianness (``=``) is supported
Returns
-------
tuple
``(kind, bit-width, format string, endianness)``.
Notes
-----
- Kind specifiers are aligned with DLPack where possible
(hence the jump to 20, leave enough room for future extension).
- Masks must be specified as boolean with either bit width 1 (for bit masks)
or 8 (for byte masks).
- Dtype width in bits was preferred over bytes
- Endianness isn't too useful, but included now in case in the future
we need to support non-native endianness
- Went with Apache Arrow format strings over NumPy format strings
because they're more complete from a dataframe perspective
- Format strings are mostly useful for datetime specification, and for categoricals.
- For categoricals, the format string describes the type of the categorical
in the data buffer. In case of a separate encoding of the categorical
(e.g. an integer to string mapping), this can be derived from ``self.describe_categorical``.
- Data types not included: complex, Arrow-style null, binary, decimal,
