node_exporter: retire standalone role (replaced by Alloy embedded)

Embedded prometheus.exporter.unix in Alloy has been pushing identical
metrics fleet-wide since 2026-05-21 cutover; the standalone binary
and systemd service have been removed from each host. Drops the
role + site.yml entry so future deploys don't reinstate them.

See homelab-docs/docs/audit/alloy-consolidation-2026-05-21.md.
