Fixes #6435

Enforces deprecations that have been in {lightgbm} sinvce v4.4.0:

  • removes support for passing anything other than an lgb.Dataset to data argument of lgb.cv()
  • removes colnames and categorical_feature arguments from lgb.train() and lgb.cv()

Notes for Reviewers

Still need to do reverse dependency checks

Before this is merged, we should check that it won't break any projects on CRAN that depend on {lightgbm}. I might propose introducing a comment-triggered CI job we can use for this purpose, maybe with https://github.com/r-lib/revdepcheck.

xgboost did something similar recently

As @mayer79 mentioned on #6435. See dmlc/xgboost#10031
