apacheGH-38768: [Python] Empty slicing an array backwards beyond the start is now empty (apache#40682)

### What changes are included in this PR?

`_normalize_slice` now relies on `slice.indices` (https://docs.python.org/3/reference/datamodel.html#slice.indices).

### Are these changes tested?

Yes.

### Are there any user-facing changes?

Fixing wrong data returned in an edge case.
