### Describe the bug, including details regarding any error messages,
version, and platform.
Hello,
I'm hitting an issue when casting an integer ChunkedArray to a string type.
The issue happens when the target array chunk size of the string array is too
large. Instead of performing the cast at the granularity of the input chunks,
pyarrow should do it based on the target array size.
```
arr = 9_999_999_999_999 * np.ones(1_000_000_000//8) # 1 GB Array
pa_arr = pa.chunked_array([arr])
pa_arr
<pyarrow.lib.ChunkedArray object at 0x16a1cfce0>
[

pa_arr.cast(pa.string())
