Hello everyone,

Following our process [1] I am calling for a lazy consensus on suspending
(for now) quibole provider

Qubole has been acquired and seems that maintainers have left the project
https://github.com/qubole/qds-sdk-py#where-are-the-maintainers-
the package has been unmaintained for a long time and it's likely no-one
uses it
until someone steps up to maintain it, we should suspend it

Just to remind - suspending means that we stop releasing new versions of
the provider, building documentation and running tests. Also dependencies
of that provider will not contribute to the CI image of ours (including
deprecated boto3 which it held us to).

Note - since the service seems discontinued - we might consider further
actions for that one - we have not yet gone through the process of moving
our code to "attic" (this is the process in ASF where you want to remove
some of the code that you released). If we do not hear from users that they
miss qubole we might also want to introduce the process of moving
unmaintained providers to the attic. But let's suspend it first.

The lazy consensus will run till Friday 1st of October 2023 3.30pm.
