THRIFT-4509: remove nodejs browser test
Removes the dependency on outdated npm libraries.
This test was previously disabled, and I think it is safe to remove since
the communication between browser client and nodejs server is already being
tested properly from the JS perspective.

> Key: THRIFT-4509
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-4509
> Project: Thrift
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: JavaScript - Library, Node.js - Library
> Affects Versions: 0.11.0
> Reporter: James E. King, III
> Priority: Critical
> Labels: security
>
> The npm libraries that our js and nodejs depend on are starting to go end of
> life.
> As it stands the build is just barely holding together, and as of 5 hours ago
> the "ws" package dropped support for node < 4.5.0; Ubuntu Xenial 16.04 LTS
> uses node v4.2.6.
> There are other issues:
> {noformat}
> Running "shell:InstallThriftNodeJSDep" (shell) task
> WARN engine [email protected]: wanted: {"node":">=4.5.0"} (current:
> {"node":"4.2.6","npm":"3.5.2"})
> npm WARN deprecated [email protected]: Please update to minimatch 3.0.2 or
> higher to avoid a RegExp DoS issue
> npm WARN deprecated [email protected]: Please update to minimatch 3.0.2 or
> higher to avoid a RegExp DoS issue
> npm WARN deprecated [email protected]: Please update to minimatch 3.0.2 or
> higher to avoid a RegExp DoS issue
> npm WARN deprecated [email protected]: Please update to minimatch 3.0.2 or
> higher to avoid a RegExp DoS issue
> npm WARN deprecated [email protected]: Use uuid module instead
> npm WARN deprecated [email protected]: ReDoS vulnerability parsing
> Set-Cookie https://nodesecurity.io/advisories/130
> {noformat}
> Some of these are security issues.
> In addition the js module depends on
> https://www.npmjs.com/package/grunt-external-daemon which requires grunt
> 0.4.0, which is really old and may contribute to requiring older versions of
> things that are posting deprecations.
