    Args:
        array: Array-like data (anything #ak.to_layout recognizes).
        pattern (str or bytes): Substring pattern to test against the start
            of each string in `array`.
        ignore_case (bool): If True, perform a case-insensitive match;
            otherwise, the match is case-sensitive.
        highlevel (bool): If True, return an #ak.Array; otherwise, return
            a low-level #ak.contents.Content subclass.
        behavior (None or dict): Custom #ak.behavior for the output array, if
            high-level.
        attrs (None or dict): Custom attributes for the output array, if
            high-level.

    Returns True for every string in `array` if it starts with the given literal
    suffix `pattern`. Depending upon the value of `ignore_case`, the matching
    function will be case-insensitive.

    Note: this function does not raise an error if the `array` does not
    contain any string or bytestring data.

    Requires the pyarrow library and calls
    [pyarrow.compute.starts_with](https://arrow.apache.org/docs/python/generated/pyarrow.compute.starts_with.html).
