Remove outdated DevTools prefs override for auto dark mode.

brave:master ← brave:issues/20491

opened 12:11PM - 15 Mar 22 UTC

`BraveDevToolsUIBindings` failed to load DevTools UI prefs properly which lead t…o DevTools settings not being persisted, also the sole purpose of this class was to enable dark mode, but now DevTools handles this automatically. Thus it's safe to fully remove this class.
