GH-49295: [Python] Remove "mimalloc" from `mandatory_backends` (#49645)
### Rationale for this change
mimalloc is enabled by default but users can disable it. For example,
Debian package disables it.
If it's disabled, PyArrow tests are failed.
### What changes are included in this PR?
Remove `"mimalloc"` from `mandatory_backends` in our test.
### Are these changes tested?
Yes.
### Are there any user-facing changes?
No.
