global_SUITE: Eliminate redundant registration of 'test_server' process
global_SUITE registers the name 'test_server' in the global registry for what seems to be only historical reasons. Exactly how it happened is lost in the mists of time, but I think the following is a reasonable reconstruction: * At one point in time, the test_server application started to do a global registration of a 'test_server' process to support embedded systems when the test_server application was run on both a host and a target system. * global_SUITE had to be modified to take the pre-existing 'test_server' registration into account. * When Erlang/OTP switched to using common_test, global_SUITE was modified to register the 'test_server' name itself in commit 8bd07f450816eaaae52d28740d89ead1f930cd02 (since the test_server application does not register the 'test_server' name when run under control of common_test). To slightly reduce the size of global_SUITE, remove the redundant registration and stop expecting 'test_server' to be registered.
