[jira] [Created] (ARROW-13700) [Docs][C++] Clarify DayOfWeekOptions args

Ian Cook created ARROW-13700:
--------------------------------

             Summary: [Docs][C++] Clarify DayOfWeekOptions args
                 Key: ARROW-13700
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-13700
             Project: Apache Arrow
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: C++, Documentation
            Reporter: Ian Cook


Minor docs improvement suggestion:

The docs for {{DayOfWeekOptions}} say: 
{quote}{{bool one_based_numbering}}
 Number days from 1 if true and from 0 if false.

{{uint32_t week_start}}
 What day does the week start with (Monday=1, Sunday=7)
{quote}
This might confuse some users into thinking that the meaning of {{week_start}} is dependent on the value of {{one_based_numbering}}. For example, some users might think that if they set {{one_based_numbering=0}}, then {{week_start=1}} will be interpreted to mean Sunday instead of Monday.

Add a sentence in the docs explaining that the meaning of number passed to {{week_start}} is unaffected by the choice of {{one_based_numbering}}.
