Part of #107749. Now that hot/cold splitting runs after layout in the backend, where the flowgraph is expected to never change, we shouldn't need to check for the presence of a cold code section in the frontend.

This check looks like it wouldn't pessimize anything if we aren't hot/cold splitting, but IsLastHotBlock returns true if block == fgLastBB too, so this check was blocking empty block removal for the last block in the worklist. Thus, the check's removal incurs some small diffs. PerfScore diffs look wonky due to churn in optSetBlockWeights, but the actual layout diffs look like an improvement.

cc @dotnet/jit-contrib, @AndyAyersMS PTAL. runtime-jit-experimental failures are unrelated. Small diffs for reasons explained above. TP improvements seem to stem not just from the removed checks, but from the simplifications I made to BasicBlock::CanRemoveJumpToTarget. There's some outlier TP regression on Linux ARM that I thought was due to native compilers making different inlining decisions, but the regression is only in coreclr_tests MinOpts -- not sure what's going on there.
