As agreed among the Unikraft maintainers, this PR removes the Linux userspace platform target, which was originally intended for debugging purposes. As there are ongoing efforts in the Unikraft community to drastically improve the debugging experience on all hypervisor platforms (e.g., Unikraft-integrated gdb backend), there is no good reason to keep the maintenance effort for the linuxu platform.
This platform already had a large backlog of features.
