Update and improve the "Developing on Windows" docs page:
- Add instructions for using Visual Studio 2019
- Add instructions for option to use vcpkg instead of conda for build dependencies
- Mention that when you use
ARROW_DEPENDENCY_SOURCE=VCPKG, vcpkg will (depending on its configuration) actually download, build, and install the C++ library dependencies for you if it can't find them; this differs from other dependency sources which require a prior installation
- Describe required Visual Studio configuration
- Improve some ambiguous instructions
