Description

On Ubuntu 18, after updating Arrow version to 2.0.0, ROOT  (https://github.com/root-project/root) builds are broken:

CMake Warning at cmake/modules/SearchInstalledSoftware.cmake:16 (_find_package):
 By not providing "FindRE2.cmake" in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH this project has
 asked CMake to find a package configuration file provided by "RE2", but
 CMake did not find one.
Could not find a package configuration file provided by "RE2" with any of
 the following names:
RE2Config.cmake
 re2-config.cmake
Add the installation prefix of "RE2" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or set "RE2_DIR"
 to a directory containing one of the above files. If "RE2" provides a
 separate development package or SDK, be sure it has been installed.
 Call Stack (most recent call first):
 /usr/share/cmake-3.10/Modules/CMakeFindDependencyMacro.cmake:48 (find_package)
 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/cmake/arrow/ArrowConfig.cmake:95 (find_dependency)
 cmake/modules/SearchInstalledSoftware.cmake:16 (_find_package)

Looks like a problem is that for a Debian/Ubuntu packaging is missing FindRE2.cmake in a list https://github.com/apache/arrow/blob/master/dev/tasks/linux-packages/apache-arrow/debian/libarrow-dev.install

CMake files I got after installation:

Manually adding FindRE2.cmake in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/cmake/arrow is fixing CMake configuration issue.
