Deprecate the Beam API and download from the HF GCS bucked. 

TODO:
- [x] Convert the Beam-based [`wikipedia`](https://huggingface.co/datasets/wikipedia) to an Arrow-based dataset ([Hub PR](https://huggingface.co/datasets/wikipedia/discussions/19))
- [x] Make [`natural_questions`](https://huggingface.co/datasets/natural_questions) a no-code dataset ([Hub PR](https://huggingface.co/datasets/natural_questions/discussions/7))
- [x] Make [`wiki40b`](https://huggingface.co/datasets/wiki40b) a no-code dataset ([Hub PR](https://huggingface.co/datasets/wiki40b/discussions/5))
- [x] Make [`wiki_dpr`](https://huggingface.co/datasets/wiki_dpr) an Arrow-based dataset ([Hub PR](https://huggingface.co/datasets/wiki_dpr/discussions/14))
