[OE-core] [PATCH 1/3] lib/oe/buildhistory_analysis: drop related field feature

[Paul Eggleton]

The original idea here was that changes to certain fields might be able
to be explained if there was a change to another field, for example if
RDEPENDS changed it might be because DEPENDS changed. Thus we were
printing this kind of thing out with each change. Unfortunately in
practice this turned out to be noisy and not particularly useful, so we
might as well remove it.

Fixes [YOCTO #7336].
