Remove Balsamiq File Preview
What does this MR do and why?
The Balsamiq File Preview is not utilized a lot. In fact it has been broken since over a year on gitlab.com and on self managed instances #285525 (closed). The Balsamiq preview itself doesn't have a lot of value as it just renders the preview of the first Balsamiq page and not all the pages. We have received no user complaints whatsoever, meaning that likely noone relied on this feature.
This MR removes the previewer, as it is also riddled with tech debt, for example shipping a asm.js compiled version of sql.js
