[jboss-dev] remove deploy/ejb3-timer-service.xml

[Carlo de Wolf]

Configuration is done via system property 
org.jboss.ejb3.timerservice.factory, it defaults to 
org.jboss.ejb3.timer.jboss.JBossTimerServiceFactory. Which is a factory 
around jboss.ejb:service=EJBTimerService (the ejb2 timer impl).

So it's fine to remove the descriptor.
