[PR] docs: stop listing GROUPS window frames as a fallback [datafusion-comet]

andygrove opened a new pull request, #6303:
URL: https://github.com/apache/datafusion-comet/pull/6303

   ## Which issue does this PR close?
   
   This is a follow-up to #4836, which I closed as not planned, so there is no issue for it to close.
   
   ## Rationale for this change
   
   Spark has no `GROUPS` frame unit. Its grammar only accepts `ROWS` and `RANGE`, and catalyst defines only `RowFrame` and `RangeFrame` through 4.2.0, so no Spark plan can contain a `GROUPS` frame. The window compatibility guide and the roadmap still listed `GROUPS` frames as something Comet falls back on, which suggests there is work left to do when there isn't.
   
   ## What changes are included in this PR?
   
   The compatibility guide drops `GROUPS` frames from the window "Falls back to Spark" list. The same bullet noted that Spark rejects `DISTINCT` aggregates over a window, which is true but doesn't belong in a fallback list either, so both facts now sit in one sentence after the list. The roadmap drops `GROUPS` frames from the remaining window work, along with the link definition that pointed at #4836.
   
   ## How are these changes tested?
   
   This is a documentation change only. `prettier --check` passes on both files.
