MXS-1777 Remove selection of servers with historically lower number of connections.

Removed the almost equal comparison and subsequent selection based on historical number of connections.
The effect of it was this: Select the server that has historically, weights or not, been slower. Tested this with 2.2
with maxscale on one server and mariadb:s on two servers with different network lags. The tests with historical
selects were clearly slower.
