bitbake: cooker: Remove Feeder() since its no longer needed with moderm multiprocessing

There used to be many bugs in multiprocessing and we implemented our own
feeder process to avoid them. Now that we have python 3.x, these are fixed
and just using the standard Queue mechanism appears to work fine. We can
therefore drop the unneeded code and simplify.
