Description
### Describe the bug
In the documentation `datasets.Dataset.map` arg `cache_file_name` is said to be a string, but it doesn't work.
### Steps to reproduce the bug
1. pick a dataset
2. write a map function
3. do `ds.map(..., cache_file_name='some_filename')`
4. it crashes
### Expected behavior
It will tell you the filename you specified does not exist or it will generate a new file and tell you the filename does not exist.
