Remove frontend code quality comparison
What does this MR do?
This MR removes the frontend code that used to do the comparison between the code quality JSON artifacts for an MR to display in the code quality MR widget (downloading the base and head report artifacts for the MR branch, parsing the reports into code quality violations, comparing the violations in a worker thread, and displaying the changed violations in the widget).
Now that we're certain that the new backend code quality report comparison is working properly and we can remove :codequality_backend_comparison
feature flag, all of the report parsing and comparing work will be done by the backend, so this frontend code is no longer needed.
