[DISCUSS] Removing Spark 3.3 support

Hi all,

I'd like to start a discussion on removing Spark 3.3 support. Currently we
support Spark 3.3, 3.4, 3.5, 4.0, and 4.1. Dropping Spark 3.3 would let us
focus more on the other versions, especially since we may add Spark 4.2
support soon.

Removing Spark 3.3 would involve:
- Removing the Spark 3.3 shim layer
- Removing the imported Spark 3.3 tests
- Removing the Spark 3.3 test jobs to free up GHA (GitHub Actions) resources
- Unifying the shim-layer APIs that diverged between Spark 3.3 and later
versions

If we agree, we could start the removal next month on the Gluten main
branch (targeting 1.8). Spark 3.3 would remain supported through Gluten 1.7.

Thanks,
Philo
