TEST: Remove passing pandas expected failure

[vyasr]

Description

Remove the stale strict expected-failure marker for test_constructor_dict. The test now passes in the cudf.pandas CI suite; retaining the marker turns that result into an XPASS failure.

Closing: current upstream/main still has a real cudf.pandas mismatch in this test (30 != 25), so the expected-failure entry is valid. The XPASS on #24015 and #24016 is caused by their stale bases; those branches will be rebased instead.
