…nsics (#47779) ### Rationale for this change This change enables building Arrow C++ for Windows ARM64 with MSVC when setting `ARROW_SIMD_LEVEL` to `NONE`. This is useful to be able to build Arrow with `vcpkg` and use it as a dependency. Setting `ARROW_SIMD_LEVEL` to `NONE` is done to disable the use of `xsimd`, which does not yet support msvc arm64 intrinsics, and is non-trivial to fix. ### What changes are included in this PR? A patch to the vendored `pcg` library, based on imneme/pcg-cpp#99. The upstream pcg library has not been updated in the past 3 years, so this may never get merged. ### Are these changes tested? Yes, the changes have been tested in microsoft/vcpkg#47750 (the same patch for `vcpkg`, which this change would alleviate) and in https://github.com/jgiannuzzi/ParquetSharp/actions/runs/18354286294 (a full run of the ParquetSharp CI, using this patch to build Arrow with `vcpkg`). ### Are there any user-facing changes? Not really, unless you consider adding the ability to build Arrow on Windows ARM64 user-facing? * GitHub Issue: #47784 Authored-by: Jonathan Giannuzzi <jonathan@giannuzzi.me> Signed-off-by: Antoine Pitrou <antoine@python.org>

It has passed tests on multiple platforms (including MSVC ARM64): https://github.com/Legacy-LuaSTG-Engine/pcg-cpp/actions/runs/19141647833  |

Hi - I would also like this to be merged, we'd like to expand our platform support in correctionlib and we heavily use pcg-cpp, it's great! |

This repository has been inactive for years, so I think the best solution is to fix the code using a patch. |
