Reverts: flutter/flutter#154374
Initiated by: jtmcdole
Reason for reverting: A different benchmark was using the microbenchmark parser and timing out.

This change reverts the following previous change:
Two things:
**Re-land**: Uninstall microbenchmarks before running them.
Flakes in #153828 stem from adb saying the app isn't installed, but then failing to install wtih `-r`. Several other tests uninstall the app before trying to run it. Previous fix called uninstall between tests, but iOS takes 12 to 13 seconds to perform uninstall / install, which timed out the test. Just uninstall the one time since we only care about any lingering apps with different keys.
Potential solution #153828
**Make things go fast**
Instead of installing 21 different compilations of the same app to get results; compile and run them together. Locally on Mac+iOS, this should takes ~3 minutes instead of ~15 minutes.
microbenchmarks
To run these benchmarks on a device, first run `flutter logs' in one window to see the device logs, then, in a different window, run any of these:
flutter run --release lib/gestures/velocity_tracker_bench.dart
flutter run --release lib/gestures/gesture_detector_bench.dart
flutter run --release lib/stocks/animation_bench.dart
flutter run --release lib/stocks/build_bench.dart
flutter run --release lib/stocks/layout_bench.dart
The results should be in the device logs.
Avoid changing names of the benchmarks
Each microbenchmark is identified by a name, for example, "catmullrom_transform_iteration". Changing the name of an existing microbenchmarks will effectively remove the old benchmark and create a new one, losing the historical data associated with the old benchmark in the process.
