> pandas' ArrowExtensionArray, which backs pd.ArrowDtype and string[pyarrow] 
> columns, ignores the requested Arrow type when Spark converts a pandas Series 
> with pa.Array.from_pandas. On pyarrow 18, Spark's minimum supported version, 
> the result is not cast, so in both createDataFrame from pandas and pandas UDF 
> results, a column can reach the JVM with a type that doesn't match the 
> schema, for example, int32 data for a LongType field. In pyarrow 19 and 
> later, pyarrow casts the result itself, but always with safe=True, so 
> createDataFrame ignores spark.sql.execution.pandas.convertToArrowArraySafely 
> for these columns.
