[Compiler] Remove CompileBaseline and three tier pipeline.

Since we no longer support the ignition-staging configuration 
any longer,  we can retire the three tier pipeline and the
CompileBaseline functionallity.

We still need support for JSFunction self healing due to
liveedit (which for --no-turbo might end up replacing a
forced Ignition function with a FCG function) - we can
remove this once we remove --no-turbo support.
