Remove "Hosted app data" check box from clear browsing data #42409

Description

The Hosted app data check box still remains in brave://settings/clearBrowserData even though Chrome Apps/Hosted Apps support ended in June of 2022: https://blog.chromium.org/2020/08/changes-to-chrome-app-support-timeline.html

We should remove this checkbox entirely to avoid any confusion/concern about that particular data type.
