Review comment:
       For now it might be better to run it only when we do release candidate 
verification.
   
   A next step will be to get an Arrow 3.0.0 "port" (that's the term they use) 
added to vcpkg, so users can simply `vcpkg install arrow` in their projects 
that use the Arrow C++ library as a dependency. Currently there is an [old port 
of Arrow on vcpkg](https://github.com/microsoft/vcpkg/tree/master/ports/arrow) 
and to date we have not treated vcpkg like a formal release channel. Once that 
is done, we will want to run nightly tests that install Arrow with vcpkg onto 
one or more supported platforms.
