QBenchlib/Perf: remove the handling of attributes in -perfcounter

Browse Source 
I don't think I understood what this does when I coded it. It wasn't
needed with the Linux kernels of the era.

[ChangeLog][QtTest] Specifying attributes with the -perfcounter command-
line option for Linux performance counters is deprecated. QtTest will
ignore the colon and any attributes listed there, though future versions
of QtTest may reintroduce attributes if needed.
