Revert "python3Packages.pandas: 2.3.3 -> 3.0.0"

This reverts commits 2ad5e32bd7e0f48571f8c7d198be1bcc1e6cee20 and
178b97cdc815288976dcc16af8eb7ad319a07f9c.

Pandas was just released as this cycle began and we picked it up less
than two hours after its release. This is too early for various packages
that couldn't yet deal with its breaking changes.
