vfio: Remove vfio_group dev_counter

This counts the number of devices attached to a vfio_group, ie the number
of items in the group->device_list.

It is only read in vfio_pin_pages(), as some kind of protection against
limitations in type1.

However, with all the code cleanups in this area, now that
vfio_pin_pages() accepts a vfio_device directly it is redundant.  All
drivers are already calling vfio_register_emulated_iommu_dev() which
directly creates a group specifically for the device and thus it is
guaranteed that there is a singleton group.

Leave a note in the comment about this requirement and remove the logic.
