Which issue does this PR close?

N/A

Rationale for this change

The Parquet/expression/operator compatibility guides linked a number of closed issues and, in a couple of places, documented behaviors that have since been fixed. Pointing readers at closed issues (including closed EPICs described as "we are tracking the work") and listing already-fixed behavior as a limitation is misleading. Compatibility docs should describe current divergences from Spark and link only to open tracking issues.

What changes are included in this PR?

After this change, the compatibility guide links only open issues.

How are these changes tested?

Documentation-only change. Verified that no links to the removed closed issues remain and that every issue still linked from the compatibility guide is open.

… guide

The compatibility guide linked several closed issues and documented a few
behaviors that have since been fixed. Remove the stale entries and drop
links to closed issues while keeping the descriptions of genuine current
limitations.

- Remove the TimestampLTZ to TimestampNTZ scan bullet (apache#4219) and the
  duplicate-field-names bullet; both described Comet matching Spark rather
  than a divergence.
- Remove the Hour/Minute/Second TimestampNTZ bullet (apache#3180), fixed by apache#4753.
- Drop closed-issue links (apache#286, apache#313, apache#1947, apache#4051, apache#2649, apache#4352, apache#4729)
  from entries whose surrounding text still describes real behavior.
