Description

### Search before asking

- [x] I searched in the [issues](https://github.com/apache/paimon/issues) and found nothing similar.

### Motivation

Use Google Cloud Storage as warehouse / object storage for pypaimon (without JDK dependencies).

### Solution

Add scheme `gs` to `PyArrowFileIO`, and use `pyarrow.fs.GcsFileSystem` from the `pyarrow` package to support GCS.

### Anything else?

_No response_

Research direction

Start by locating the PyArrowFileIO implementation and its existing scheme handling. Read how pyarrow filesystem types are selected, then check the related file-I/O tests if present. Done means the gs scheme uses pyarrow.fs.GcsFileSystem and supports Google Cloud Storage without JDK dependencies.
