Issue:
BUG: writing/reading GeoDataFrame without geometry column to Parquet no longer gives informative error message
#### Code Sample, a copy-pastable example

```python
import geopandas

gdf = geopandas.GeoDataFrame(
    {"col": [1, 2, 3]}, geometry=geopandas.points_from_xy([1, 2, 3], [1, 2, 3]), crs="EPSG:4326"
)
del gdf["geometry"]

gdf.to_parquet("test_no_geometry.parquet")
geopandas.read_parquet("test_no_geometry.parquet")

```
Using geopandas 0.14, this gave an informative error message:

```
In [5]: geopandas.read_parquet("test_no_geometry.parquet")

    425 geometry_columns = df.columns.intersection(metadata["columns"])
    427 if not len(geometry_columns):
--> 428     raise ValueError(
    429         """No geometry columns are included in the columns read from

    432     )
    434 geometry = metadata["primary_column"]
    436 # Missing geometry likely indicates a subset of columns was read;
    437 # promote the first available geometry to the primary geometry.

```

But now with geopandas 1.0, we get:
