Parquet serializer

[runejo]

The Parquet serializer has two issues. They are illustrated with the following api query

https://data.ssb.no/api/pxwebapi/v2/tables/14216/data/?valuecodes[TettSted]=0801  
&valuecodes[ContentsCode]=Areal,Bosatte&valuecodes[Tid]=2025,2024&outputFormat=parquet

Resulting Parquet

år	timestamp	tettsted	ContentsCode_Areal	ContentsCode_Areal_symbol	ContentsCode_Bosatte	ContentsCode_Bosatte_symbol
2024	2024-01-01T00:00:00.000	0801	275,87		1110887
2024	2024-01-01T00:00:00.000	0801	1110887		276,3
2025	2025-01-01T00:00:00.000	0801	276,3		1098061
2025	2025-01-01T00:00:00.000	0801	1098061		1098061

1. Selecting two or more contents (Areal and Bosatte) creates to many rows in the resulting parquet file, in this case there should have been two rows
2. Selecting years 2025,2024 is not the same as selecting 2024,2025. In this case the the first row is actually the 2025 figures. The reason for this is that the parquet seralizer uses TIMEVAL and from the px output below we see that TIMVAL is the same when swapping the years. The api does not sort any valuecodes. This is intentional in the new api.

$ curl "https://data.ssb.no/api/pxwebapi/v2/tables/14216/data/?valuecodes%5bTettSted%5d=0801&valuecodes%5bContentsCode%5d=Areal,Bosatte&valuecodes%5bTid%5d=2025,2024&outputFormat=px" -s -i | grep -E '(TIMEVAL|CODES|VALUES)'
VALUES("tettsted")="Oslo";
VALUES("statistikkvariabel")="Areal av tettsted (km?)","Bosatte";
VALUES("år")="2025","2024";
TIMEVAL("år")=TLIST(A1),"2024","2025";
CODES("tettsted")="0801";
CODES("statistikkvariabel")="Areal","Bosatte";
CODES("år")="2025","2024";

The first issue with to many rows is a clear bug. I have changed the tests and will try and fix the bug in PxTools/PCAxis.Serializers#181

For the second issue it is not clear if the bug is in the parquet serializer or in the PxWebApi for not sorting time in ascending order?

Is this a valid PX file according to the TIMEVAL documentation?
