Remove dead code from nbtsplitloc.c.

It doesn't make sense to consider the possibility that there will only
be one candidate split point when choosing among split points to find
the split with the lowest penalty.  This is a vestige of an earlier
version of the patch that became commit fab25024.

Issue spotted while rereviewing coverage of the nbtree patch series
using gcov.
