many: remove snapd.refresh.{timer,service}

We used to have an emergency timer that would run a forced refresh once
a week to ensure that if something is wrong with our refresh schedule
implementation we have a way out.

We don't need this anymore because:
- we have the monthly schedule now so weekly does not fit anymore
- we have repairs for emergencies which are on their own timer
- our internal refresh got quite a bit of testing since we introduced it

This should be cherry-picked back to 2.31 and 2.32.
