Why are these changes needed?
Currently, plasma running as thread actually has been enabled by default (because java launches Ray using python scripts). Some critical functions like object spilling are also assuming that plasma store is running as a thread. So the outdated code path is no longer used and it is not functioning correctly.
However, some C++ tests are using plasma store running as a process for testing, this is not good because they are not testing what we are currently using. This PR removes the outdated plasma store executable and migrates those tests. This also reduces the size of our wheel build.
This PR may be required to pass some tests in #14924
