bpo-36013: delete fragile interactive shell SIGINT test (GH-11902)

It makes the existing smaller test more readable and robust at the same time.

The execution of a shell in interactive mode from CI and buildbot test automation wasn't working out.  What would work locally in our terminals would only work within a fraction of automation systems.  The integration test was a nice to have.  painful.  deleting. :)
