Description

Our copies of the Homebrew formulae at https://github.com/apache/arrow/tree/master/dev/tasks/homebrew-formulae have drifted out of sync with what's currently in https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/tree/master/Formula and https://github.com/autobrew/homebrew-core/blob/master/Formula. Get them back in sync and consider automating some method of checking that they are in sync, e.g. by failing the homebrew-cpp and 
homebrew-r-autobrew nightly tests if our copies don't match what's in the Homebrew and autobrew repos (but only if there were changes there that weren't made in our repo, and not the inverse).

Update the instructions at 
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/ARROW/Release+Management+Guide#ReleaseManagementGuide-UpdatingHomebrewpackages as needed.
