  1. test: remove time check

    test-child-process-fork-net2.js checks that things happen within
    certain time constraints, thus doubling as a benchmark test in addition
    to a functionality test.
    
    This change removes the time check, as it was causing the test to fail
    on SmartOS and Windows (and possibly elsewhere) when the tests were
    run in parallel on CI. There is no guarantee that other tests won't
    consume enough resources to slow this test down, so don't check the time
    constraints (beyond the generous timeout that the test is given by
    test.py in the first place, of course).
    
    If we want to do benchmark/performance tests, we should keep them
    separate from pure functionality tests. The time check may have been a
    remnant of the distant past when Node.js was much slower. It predates
    io.js
