[jira] [Created] (ARROW-17042) [C++] Add cast from decimal to string and back

Weston Pace created ARROW-17042:
-----------------------------------

             Summary: [C++] Add cast from decimal to string and back
                 Key: ARROW-17042
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-17042
             Project: Apache Arrow
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: C++
            Reporter: Weston Pace


We have {{Decimal128::ToString}} and {{Decimal256::ToString}}.  I don't know how performant they are but it should be better than nothing.  In addition, we have a lot of casting infrastructure already so this should just be an addition to that.  There shouldn't be a lot of work required here.  It will mostly be understanding how all the pieces are organized and connecting them together.
