MINOR: [Docs] Tweak language in basic_arrow.rst (#40006)
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
### Rationale for this change

I came across this use of the word "cutely" and thought it might trip people up. I think the author was trying to make a point about CPU cache-friendliness and I don't think cutely is a common enough way to talk about CPU caches to be used here.

### What changes are included in this PR?

It might be more specific to say that it's the data that's in buffers of the chunks that is either in the CPU cache or not but I think the simpler language I went with matches the high-level nature of this document.

### Are these changes tested?

No

### Are there any user-facing changes?

Yes, just to docs.

we made earlier in part of our chunked array, allowing us to extend them without having to copy
