Backport of 'Remove package OS check from deployer task' - 18.10
What does this MR do and why?
Backport of Remove package OS check from deployer task to 18-10-stable. Removes the unnecessary OS version check from the gitlab_com:deployer rake task, which does not work (no package is attached to the job) and is irrelevant since the deployer pipeline only uses DEPLOY_VERSION, DEPLOY_USER, and DEPLOY_ENVIRONMENT.
