What changes were proposed in this pull request?
Keep the existing PyArrow Array.to_pandas() golden files unchanged and patch the expected string conversion results in memory when running with pandas 3. PyArrow 24-specific overrides cover empty string arrays, whose conversion changed separately from non-empty arrays.
Why are the changes needed?
Pandas 3 uses its dedicated string dtype when converting non-empty Arrow string arrays, while PyArrow 24 extends that behavior to empty string arrays. The shared golden expects Series[object], causing the pandas 3 CI job to fail with six mismatches for string and large_string arrays.
Does this PR introduce any user-facing change?
No.
