selftests/proc: Remove idle time monotonicity assertions

Due to broken iowait task counting design (cf: comments above
get_cpu_idle_time_us() and nr_iowait()), it is not possible to provide
the guarantee that /proc/stat or /proc/uptime display monotonic idle
time values.

Remove the assertions that verify the related wrong assumption so that
testers and maintainers don't spend more time on that.
