iqvlinux: remove package

This package contains a kernel module from Intel, which could only be
used together with Intel userspace tools provided under NDA, which
also come with the same kernel module. The copy of the kernel module
available on SourceForge is only provided to comply with the GPLv2
requirement. Intel engineers were even surprised it even built and
were not willing to make any effort to fix their tarball naming to
contain a version number. Therefore, it does not make sense for
Buildroot to provide such a package.

See https://sourceforge.net/p/e1000/bugs/589/ for the discussion.
