I think we should add a new job test compat between 4.0 and latest branch now. Let me take a quick look to add it. |

### What changes were proposed in this pull request?
This PR aims to remove a broken and misleading `build_python_connect35.yml` GitHub Action job.
Note that this doesn't mean that they are incompatible. This is literally the GitHub Action infra issue.
### Why are the changes needed?
1. `build_python_connect35` has been broken over 4 months since 2025-07-23.
- https://github.com/apache/spark/actions/workflows/build_python_connect35.yml

2. The root cause is PySpark 4.1 and PySpark 3.5 requirements are different. Especially, `pyarrow`, `grpcio`, and `googleapis-common-protos`.
- **PySpark 3.5.7**
https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/ed00d046951a7ecda6429accd3b9c5b2dc792b65/python/docs/source/getting_started/install.rst?plain=1#L155-L165
- **PySpark 4.1.0-preview4**
https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/c125aea395b37ec1fa3b4e8b5a3e9bee270203c2/python/docs/source/getting_started/install.rst?plain=1#L225-L235
3. Since there is no way to install both dependencies in a single Python, we had better remove this for now. We need an alternative way.
### Does this PR introduce _any_ user-facing change?
No behavior change because this is a removal of already broken CI. This CI is only invokable in `apache/spark` repository.
