[Docs][Python] Fix argument order in the Python dev docs #49546

Description

@AlenkaF

Describe the enhancement requested

The current documentation for building PyArrow needs a change as the order of arguments in pip install ... will give this error:

pip install --no-build-isolation --editable -vv .
ERROR: -vv is not a valid editable requirement. It should either be a path to a local project or a VCS URL (beginning with bzr+http, bzr+https, bzr+ssh, bzr+sftp, bzr+ftp, bzr+lp, bzr+file, git+http, git+https, git+ssh, git+git, git+file, hg+file, hg+http, hg+https, hg+ssh, hg+static-http, svn+ssh, svn+http, svn+https, svn+svn, svn+file).

We should correct it to be:

pip install --no-build-isolation --editable . -vv 

(-vv at the end or before --editable .).
