services: user-processes: Remove support for /etc/shepherd/do-not-kill.

The /etc/shepherd/do-not-kill feature has been unused since commit
c8289690365887ca1dd122645e479a89cf7cd969, which switched from
unionfs (FUSE) to overlayfs.

* gnu/services/shepherd.scm (%do-not-kill-file): Remove.
(user-processes-shepherd-service): In ‘stop’ action, remove
‘kill-except’, ‘omitted-pids’, and ‘lset=’.  Remove conditionals on
‘omitted-pids’ being non-empty.
