OGC Feature Server URL - rejects valid servers #2304

Description

Describe the bug
In layers/_ogc/_service.py, in the OGCCollectionClass, it checks the provided URL to ensure it has "ogcfeatureserver" in it and that it ends in a number. This invalidates a lot of servers that do work, such as the server provided by OGC itself.

In testing I have removed these assert statements (or run Python optimized with the -O flag), and was able to connect and pull data from servers that do not meet these URL requirements.

To Reproduce

from arcgis.layers import OGCFeatureService

feature_layer = OGCFeatureService("https://demo.ldproxy.net/daraa")

print(feature_layer.properties)

error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "[HIDDEN].py", line 3, in <module>
    feature_layer = OGCFeatureService("https://demo.ldproxy.net/daraa")
                    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
  File "[HIDDEN]/.venv/lib/python3.11/site-packages/arcgis/layers/_ogc/_service.py", line 227, in __init__
    assert str(url).lower().endswith("ogcfeatureserver")
           ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
AssertionError

Expected behavior
It should connect to the server and be able to pull data. When run with python -O, the beginning of the output is:
