Note that this is not specific to scalars, but just in general for the
python -> arrow conversion:
```python
>>> pa.array([datetime.datetime(2024, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1)], pa.date32())
<pyarrow.lib.Date32Array object at 0x7fab4bdaa860>
[
2024-01-01
]
```
But yes I agree that it seems better behaviour to raise an error here
instead of silently truncating.
(the other way around, creating a timestamp array from datetime.date (which
does not truncate and which you would expect to work), then doesn't seem to be
supported: https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/36277)
