bkietz opened a new issue, #36124: URL: https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/36124
### Describe the enhancement requested `CMakePresets.json` does not export compile commands by default. The relevant option is `"CMAKE_EXPORT_COMPILE_COMMANDS": "ON",` and produces a file `compile_commands.json` which is used by clang tooling. The file is not huge; about 1MB. IMHO it'd be worthwhile to enable this by default so that developers always have access to it without needing to regenerate their cmake build dir; language servers and other tooling can be silently disabled without the compile commands database.
