Userland: Remove "Inspector" program and related utilities

Browse source 
This program has never lived up to its original idea, and has been
broken for years (property editing, etc). It's also unmaintained and
off-by-default since forever.

At this point, Inspector is more of a maintenance burden than a feature,
so this commit removes it from the system, along with the mechanism in
Core::EventLoop that enables it.

If we decide we want the feature again in the future, it can be
reimplemented better. :^)

## Name
![Icon](/res/icons/16x16/app-inspector.png) Inspector - Serenity process inspector
[Open](file:///bin/Inspector)
## Synopsis
```**sh
$ Inspector [pid]
```
## Arguments
* `pid`: Process ID to inspect
## Description
Inspector facilitates process inspection via RPC.
To inspect a process, it must have `MAKE_INSPECTABLE=1` in its environment,
and it must have previously allowed the
[`accept`(2)](help://man/2/accept) system call with
[`pledge`(2)](help://man/2/pledge) to allow inspection
via UNIX socket.
## Examples
```sh
$ Inspector $(pidof Shell)
```
