[lldb] Remove cmake check for pexpect with LLDB_TEST_USE_VENDOR_PACKAGES

[rupprecht]

The commit 8bed754 was intended to support the use case where users want to run all the LLDB tests in an environment where pexpect is not installed. Those users can build with -DLLDB_TEST_USER_ARGS=--skip-category=pexpect to skip pexpect tests, but because we still fail in cmake configuration, they must use -DLLDB_TEST_USE_VENDOR_PACKAGES=ON to avoid failing due to pexpect not being available.

I would like to remove LLDB_TEST_USE_VENDOR_PACKAGES now, but first I'd like to make sure users w/o pexpect can pass CI with -DLLDB_TEST_USE_VENDOR_PACKAGES=OFF -DLLDB_TEST_USER_ARGS=--skip-category=pexpect. Once that is done, I am not aware of any other issues caused by the previous commits, so the third party tree should be safe to remove.
