[I] [Docs][Python] New contributors guide: add build instructions [arrow]
thisisnic opened a new issue, #47737:
URL: https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/47737
### Describe the enhancement requested
In the new contributors guide instructions for Python (https://arrow.apache.org/docs/developers/guide/step_by_step/building.html) we point people to the main instructions (https://arrow.apache.org/docs/developers/python.html#environment-setup-and-build). However, these are more detailed than necessary and it's confusing working out where we got to going from one document to another; we should instead include a minimal version here so new contributors have a simple path to follow.

Thanks for flagging this up @dangotbanned! Would you be up for either making a PR to help add the instructions, or reviewing the PR if someone else writes it? Sounds like your involvement would be really helpful here.

I mentioned something similar in (https://github.com/apache/arrow/discussions/45919#discussioncomment-14574396)
> I feel *less confident* that I'd pull off following [docs/developers/python](https://arrow.apache.org/docs/developers/python.html) without issue - as someone with less experience on projects with a compile-step.

Thanks @thisisnic

I could definitely give feedback on a PR!
But so far I've only skimmed through the current instructions - not actually tried building from source *yet* 😅
