i965: Remove perf monitor/query backend
In its current state the unified i965 backend for AMD_performance_monitor and INTEL_performance_query isn't able to report meaningful Observation Architecture metrics since we haven't so far had the necessary kernel support to fully configure the OA unit, nor the corresponding support for normalizing the counters into a form that can be usefully interpreted by application developers (as opposed to raw values that may, for example, scale by the number of EUs there are). So that we can focus on implementing just one of these extensions fully and since we anticipate some significant backend changes as we look to use a new kernel interface to configure the OA unit, this patch removes the current backend. This will simplify our ability to update the frontend infrastructure and backend interface before updating our support for performance counters.
