gh-120522: Revert "Add a `--with-app-store-compliance` configure option to 
patch out problematic code" (gh-120984) (#121844)

This reverts commit 48cd104b0cf05dad8958efa9cb9666c029ef9201 prior
to the release of 3.13.0b4 to allow for additional review time.

 The :mod:`urllib.parse` module defines functions that fall into two broad
 categories: URL parsing and URL quoting. These are covered in detail in
 the following sections.

-App Store Compliance
-====================
-
-The only mechanism for distributing apps to third-party iOS devices is to
-submit the app to the iOS App Store; apps submitted for distribution must pass
-Apple's app review process. This process includes a set of automated validation
-rules that inspect the submitted application bundle for problematic code.
-
-The Python standard library contains some code that is known to violate these
-automated rules. While these violations appear to be false positives, Apple's
-review rules cannot be challenged; so, it is necessary to modify the Python
-standard library for an app to pass App Store review.
-
-The Python source tree contains
-:source:`a patch file <Mac/Resources/app-store-compliance.patch>` that will 
remove
-all code that is known to cause issues with the App Store review process. This
-patch is applied automatically when building for iOS.

---------------------
-
-Apps submitted for distribution through the macOS App Store must pass Apple's
-app review process. This process includes a set of automated validation rules
-that inspect the submitted application bundle for problematic code.
-
-The Python standard library contains some code that is known to violate these
-automated rules. While these violations appear to be false positives, Apple's
-review rules cannot be challenged. Therefore, it is necessary to modify the
-Python standard library for an app to pass App Store review.

-The Python source tree contains

remove
-all code that is known to cause issues with the App Store review process. This
-patch is applied automatically when CPython is configured with the
-:option:`--with-app-store-compliance` option.
-
-This patch is not normally required to use CPython on a Mac; nor is it required
-if you are distributing an app *outside* the macOS App Store. It is *only*
-required if you are using the macOS App Store as a distribution channel.
