Sean Owen eb037a8180 [SPARK-28855][CORE][ML][SQL][STREAMING] Remove outdated usages of Experimental, Evolving annotations
### What changes were proposed in this pull request?

The Experimental and Evolving annotations are both (like Unstable) used to express that a an API may change. However there are many things in the code that have been marked that way since even Spark 1.x. Per the dev thread, anything introduced at or before Spark 2.3.0 is pretty much 'stable' in that it would not change without a deprecation cycle. Therefore I'd like to remove most of these annotations. And, remove the `:: Experimental ::` scaladoc tag too. And likewise for Python, R.

The changes below can be summarized as:
- Generally, anything introduced at or before Spark 2.3.0 has been unmarked as neither Evolving nor Experimental
- Obviously experimental items like DSv2, Barrier mode, ExperimentalMethods are untouched
- I _did_ unmark a few MLlib classes introduced in 2.4, as I am quite confident they're not going to change (e.g. KolmogorovSmirnovTest, PowerIterationClustering)

It's a big change to review, so I'd suggest scanning the list of _files_ changed to see if any area seems like it should remain partly experimental and examine those.

### Why are the changes needed?

Many of these annotations are incorrect; the APIs are de facto stable. Leaving them also makes legitimate usages of the annotations less meaningful.

### Does this PR introduce any user-facing change?

No.

### How was this patch tested?

Existing tests.

Closes #25558 from srowen/SPARK-28855.
