getloadavg: Remove support for privileged invocation

This was needed when getloadavg required privileged access; in this
case GNU make needed to be installed as a setgid program.  But this
hasn't been supported by gnulib getloadavg() since 2011 and systems
are no longer using it, so remove it.

* src/makeint.h (user_access): Remove unnecessary function.
(make_access): Ditto.
(child_access): Ditto.
* src/misc.c: Remove implementations of the *_access() functions.
* src/main.c (main): Remove unneeded call to user_access().
* src/job.c (load_too_high): Remove calls to {make,user}_access().
(exec_command): Remove call to child_access().
* src/remote-cstms.c: Remove calls to these methods.  I suppose it
might be possible this is needed and was piggy-backing on the
privileged setting but since that's been broken for a while I doubt
this is needed.  If so we can bring back the implementation into
this source file.
* src/config.h.W32.template: Remove GETLOADAVG_PRIVILEGED undef.
* src/config.h-vms.template: Ditto.
* src/config.ami.template: Ditto.
