Review Comment:
   I don't think we want to do that. The `String` and `LargeString` are an 
Arrow encoding detail (similar to the categorial type). Maybe we should have a 
different version of `to_requested_schema` where we don't cast, and just keep 
the original types? If the types are incompatible (for example, the field-id 
points to a string in the schema, and you try to write a boolean, it should 
fail).
