Description

Reasons:
* It is not (as far as I know) widely used
* It requires significant QPU time to configure - we even [have a warning to that effect](https://github.com/dwavesystems/dwave-system/blob/91a5b5ccd746906b701fe22adca0bd5716f79a47/dwave/system/composites/virtual_graph.py#L78)
* It is less relevant now with the lower noise processors and does not implement the latest protocols
* Removing it would allow us to remove the dependency on dwave-drivers, and remove a lot of [caching boilerplate](https://github.com/dwavesystems/dwave-system/tree/53620347f6b809dfab6d946a181ff57ad6605470/dwave/system/cache)
