 Description   

Description

Downstream Change Summary

This change removes the --cpuprofile build flag, as well as the conditionally enabled commands _cpuProfilerStart and _cpuProfilerStop.

Description of Linked Ticket

Modern system profiling tools on Linux and other operating systems have made linking the gperftools cpu profiler into the server unnecessary. It was always cumbersome because production versions of the server didn't link it in, anyhow. This task is to remove the special server commands and build system support for the cpu profiler, and to close as "won't fix" the handful of server tickets related to improvements or extensions to the gperftools cpu profiler support.

We don't actually mention the commands mentioned and we only refer to the authaction cpuProfiler, which remains and is included in hostManager built-in role.
