Issue:
remove: method removes the first occurrence of the element with the specified value.
### Feature Description
Add support for remove() method for lists in the Python translation.

### Test Code
This code should work when this issue is fixed:
```python

lis = [1, 2, 3]
lis.remove(2)
print(lis)
>> [1, 3]
```

### Proposed Solution
See description in https://github.com/pyccel/pyccel/issues/1529

Pull request:
List support: `remove` method
Add support for the `remove()` method of Python lists to the semantic stage and Python codegen. This fixes #1693.

**Commit Summary**

- Add a `ListRemove` subclass of `ListMethod`, representing the `remove()` method. The constructor checks for compatibility between the type of the `remove()` argument and the type of the list, and raises an error if they are not homogeneous.
- Add success and error tests for the `remove()` method involving many scenarios where the function could be used.
