Describe the enhancement requested

It does seem we are using some pretty old and deprecated spark versions on our CI nightly integration builds with spark.
As discussed on this PR comment discussion: #36061 (comment)

The following comments were added:

Do we still need Spark 3.1.2?

I think that Spark 3.1 reached EOL:

https://spark.apache.org/versioning-policy.html

Feature release branches will, generally, be maintained with bug fix releases for a period of 18 months.

And 3.1.1 was released on 2021-03-02:

https://spark.apache.org/news/index.html

Spark 3.1.1 released
March 2, 2021

3.2 might reach EOL because 3.2.0 was released on 2021-10-13:

Spark 3.2.0 released
October 13, 2021

Component(s)

Continuous Integration, Python

@kiszk do you know what are the versions we should be testing?

You are right. This (at the bottom) is the maintenance policy. For 18 months from the release. Based on the policy, the current active Sparks are 3.2.x, 3.3.x, and 3.4.x.

Spark 3.2.x will be retired soon.

Spark 3.2.0 released
October 13, 2021

Spark 3.5 will be released after this summer

August 2023 | Release candidates (RC), voting, etc. until final release passes

So, my suggestion is to test Spark 3.4.0.
