[FLINK-3420] [api-breaking] Remove utility functions from
StreamExecutionEnvironment
This removes the functions `readTextFileWithValue(...)` and
`readFileOfPrimitives(...)` from `StreamExecutionEnvironment`.
These methods are highly specific for very niche cases of bounded data
stream processing.
As such, the disadvantages (bloat and lock the API, lock the development
into support) outweigh the benefit.
