Review Comment:
   > but in general I think if we can create them easily (and it's not an undue 
maintenance burden), we should keep them for the conda builds.
   
   If we prepare `arrow-python.pc` only for conda, conda users only can use it. 
It's not portable. It means that developers who use pyarrow's C++ API need to 
support `arrow-python.pc` environment and no-`arrow-python.pc` environment.
   
   I think that all developers who use pyarrow's C++ API use 
`pyarrow.get_include_dir()`/`pyarrow.get_library_dirs()`/`pyarrow.get_libraries()`
 instead of `arrow-python.pc`. `pyarrow.*` are available on conda and non-conda 
environments.
