Some of the APIs listed in ARROW-13555 were deprecated in 1.0.0 or before, and are relatively easy to remove:

• Accessing a bunch of ipc related functionalities from the top-level namespace instead from `pyarrow.ipc` (deprecated since 0.17)
• pyarrow.compat module (deprecated since 1.0.0)
• The ...Value scalar classes (deprecated since 1.0.0)
• Ignoring mismatch between ordered flag of values and type in array(..)
• chunksize parameter in RecordBatchWriter.write_table (deprecated since 0.15) + get_next_batch method
• DictionaryScalar.index/dictionary_value attributes (deprecated since 1.0.0)
