[jira] [Created] (ARROW-7644) Add vcpkg installation instructions

JackBoosY created ARROW-7644:
--------------------------------

             Summary: Add vcpkg installation instructions
                 Key: ARROW-7644
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-7644
             Project: Apache Arrow
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Documentation
    Affects Versions: 0.15.1
         Environment: All platforms
            Reporter: JackBoosY


arrow is available as a port in vcpkg, a C++ library manager that simplifies installation for arrow and other project dependencies. Documenting the install process here will help users get started by providing a single set of commands to build arrow, ready to be included in their projects.

We also test whether our library ports build in various configurations (dynamic, static) on various platforms (OSX, Linux, Windows: x86, x64, UWP, ARM) to keep a wide coverage for users.

I'm a maintainer for vcpkg, and [here is what the port script looks like|https://github.com/microsoft/vcpkg/blob/master/ports/arrow/portfile.cmake]. We try to keep the library maintained as close as possible to the original library.
