### Describe the enhancement requested It seems that, currently, Neon is not enabled at all on Windows ARM64 builds: https://github.com/apache/arrow/actions/runs/25043252865/job/73351674163?pr=49756#step:11:377 The reason was lack of xsimd support. However, xsimd [now supports](https://github.com/xtensor-stack/xsimd/commit/1c6c7f0ac578c9aea1d8d08afce7d8ee9587491f) Windows ARM64 on its main branch. So we can probably re-enable Neon on Windows once a new xsimd version is released. ### Component(s) C++
