misc: Delete the unittest/genini.py script.

It looks like this script was intended to be used to generate config.ini
files from a given gem5 configuration, although some of the functions
and paths it uses are quite obsolete and won't work any more, for
instance m5execfile and the util/pbs directory.

The currently recommended way to generate a config.ini file is to run a
configurtion up to the point it would be generated and then stop it,
that *will* work today, and while it's not necessarily elegant to have
to run a simulation to an arbitrary point and then kill it, relying on
the config.ini itself, an intermediate artifact, is also not
particularly elegant.

Rather than move this script to util or config, either of which would be
a more appropriate home for it, and then also attempting to fix it up to
work with modern gem5, where it may then still sit unused and forgotten,
it's better to just delete it and rely on the other existing method.
