GH-41145: [R][CI] test-r-dev-duckdb fails installing duckdb (#41152)
### Rationale for this change
An error is received installing R duckdb:
```
#15 18.13 > remotes::install_github('duckdb/duckdb-r', build = FALSE)
#15 18.27 Error: Failed to install 'unknown package' from **GitHub:**
#15 18.27 Line starting 'Roxyg ...' is malformed!
```
Some searching seems to suggest that this is because R cannot process UTF-8
characters in DESCRIPTION files if the `LANG` is set to `C`.
### What changes are included in this PR?
The `LANG` is set to `C.UTF-8` in the dockerfile for this CI job
### Are these changes tested?
The change only affects a test
### Are there any user-facing changes?
No
