   Hm, maybe `importlib.resources` could be a better option. I was looking at 
the docs and wasn't able to find if it includes windowsZones.xml? I think the 
C++ implementation also needs this part: 
https://arrow.apache.org/docs/dev/cpp/build_system.html#runtime-dependencies
   (the location also needs to be what Arrow C++ expects).
