WillAyd opened a new issue, #45636: URL: https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/45636
### Describe the enhancement requested Right now the project strictly requires the vendored version of flatbuffers, and places static assertions on main that the version of flatbuffers being used is 23.5.26 Instead of forcing the use of the vendored copy, we could open the project up to detecting a system dependency first, only falling back to the vendored copy when none is detected. The origin of this conversation stems from the setup of the Meson build system in https://github.com/apache/arrow/pull/45596#issuecomment-2683607464 @kou ### Component(s) C++ -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
