Revert "Pseudo terminals: add utility module"

It was noticed that the Python standard library provides os.ttyname(),
and, while it only returns the Pseudo Terminal file path when given
the slave file descriptor, it looks to be sufficient for most, if not
all, use cases.

This reverts commit 003bfaed.
