    GH-49459: [R][CI] Use RHEL-9 binaries on Amazon Linux 2023 builds (#49460)
    
    ### Rationale for this change
    
    It takes 45 mins to install the duckdb R package in the benchmarks as it 
builds from source
    
    ### What changes are included in this PR?
    
    Use the RSPM RHEL9 binaries instead by mapping Amazon Linux 2023 to RHEL9
    
    ### Are these changes tested?
    
    I did locally but I'll ask Ursabot to benchmark or whatever
    
    ### Are there any user-facing changes?
    
    Nah
