ARROW-12262: [Doc] Enable S3 and Flight in docs build

[pitrou]

Also use Ubuntu 20.04 by default, instead of 18.04.

[pitrou]

The Python Flight API docs still fail generating because of:

For the C++ and Python side at least, it would be easier to use a Conda-based build... but I don't know how that would work for R :-/

[pitrou]

I wonder if we can use Ubuntu's libgrpc++-dev package instead of building from source. As a bonus, the build would be faster...

You could try it by adding libgrpc to the ubuntu-20.04-cpp.dockerfile

[pitrou]

Ok, it doesn't seem to work:

• we need a more recent libprotobuf than 20.04 provides
• our CMake build can't find Ubuntu's gRPC or c-ares libraries anyway :-/

We can use system gRPC with Ubuntu 20.10.
Our packages for Ubuntu 20.10 use system gRPC.

[pitrou]

Our packages for Ubuntu 20.10 use system gRPC.

That seems to work. However, c-ares still needs to be built from source. Is there a reason for that? I see that the Flight library links to the system c-ares...

# ldd /usr/local/lib/libarrow_flight.so.400.0.0 | grep ares
	libcares.so.2 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcares.so.2 (0x00007f3d253bb000)

[kou]

Ah, it's a bug of our CMake script.
We need to find system c-ares by pkg-config too.

Do you want me to create a patch for it?

[pitrou]

That would be nice, yes :-)

[kou]

OK. I'll work on it.

Crossbow failed unrelatedly in the Java build :-/

Ok, I don't think the Java failures should block this PR (we may also disable building the Java docs if that's required to upload the 4.0.0 docs). Will merge.
