    Remove the remoteFetchTime metric.

    This metric is confusing: it adds up all of the time to fetch
    shuffle inputs, but fetches often happen in parallel, so
    remoteFetchTime can be much longer than the task execution time.
    
    @squito it looks like you added this metric -- do you have a use case for 
it?
    
    cc @shivaram -- I know you've looked at the shuffle performance a lot so 
chime in here if this metric has turned out to be useful for you!
