Remove all CONFIG_GPROF code that depends on that,
including one errant check using TARGET_GPROF.

``gprof`` builds (since 8.0)
''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
The ``--enable-gprof`` configure setting relies on compiler
instrumentation to gather its data which can distort the generated
profile. As other non-instrumenting tools are available that give a
more holistic view of the system with non-instrumented binaries we are
deprecating the build option and no longer defend it in CI. The
``--enable-gcov`` build option remains for analysis test case
coverage.
