------------------------------------

             Summary: [R] Add zstandard compression codec in macOS build
                 Key: ARROW-9890
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-9890
             Project: Apache Arrow
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: R
    Affects Versions: 1.0.0, 1.0.1
         Environment: macOS
            Reporter: Liang-Bo Wang


I am using the default macOS build of R arrow 1.0.1 (R 4.0.2) and it doesn't support zstandard/zstd for compression:
{code:r}
> arrow::write_parquet(cars, '~/Downloads/cars.parquet', compression = 'zstd')
Error in parquet___arrow___FileWriter__WriteTable(self, table, chunk_size) : 
  NotImplemented: ZSTD codec support not built
> arrow::codec_is_available('zstd')
[1] FALSE
{code}
Like ARROW-6960 which adds the lz4/zstd support in Windows, It'd be a great to have the zstd support by default in macOS as well.

I don't know if I have the right knowledge to add such support, but let me know how I can help. Thank you for making this great package!
