Another option to consider is to have a max length on the "scalar" level,
instead of the array level (in practice, this might only be relevant/necessary
for variable sized types, i.e. binary and string; I think all other non-nested
types have a fixed / max length)
> [C++] Add max length option to PrettyPrintOptions

> Some pretty prints, especially for chunked or nested arrays, can be very long
> even with reasonable window settings. We should have a way to set some target
> maximum length to output.
> A half-measure was taken with ARROW-15329, which truncates the output of the
> pretty printing, but that doesn't handle string columns very well if those
> string values contain delimiters.
