apacheGH-27839: [R] Fetch latest nightly binary for arrow R dev versi…

…ons. (apache#38236)

### Rationale for this change

We currently need to manually download the latest nightly build as the ".9000' dev version never matches any nightly builds.

### What changes are included in this PR?

Check the nightly  repo html listing for the latest version matching the local major version.
Refactor  nixlibs.R and integrate the functionality of winlibs.R  into it to simplify maintenance and prepare for the future of in-line windows libarrow builds.

These changes are build on apache#38195 so once that is merged I will rebase this.

### Are these changes tested?

* Closes: apache#27839
