base/timer_03: remove test

The test is fragile under load (depending on how the process gets
scheduled, timer sections end up with different CPU and WALL counts).
Furthermore, as written the test isn't really a regression or unit test
for a deal.II functionality but rather verifies that the underlying
std::chrono framework works as intended.

Let's simply remove the test.
