Remove deprecated `PolyBase` from `np.polynomial.polyutils`

See original GitHub issue

np.polynomial.polyutils defines a PolyBase class that, according to the source, was deprecated back in v1.9.0: https://github.com/numpy/numpy/blob/acba24414487e0e171bedbc8d1ae3cfc63f4b2c7/numpy/polynomial/polyutils.py#L81-L91

I am wondering if it can be removed from the code base. v1.9 was quite some time ago, though I’m not sure this proposal is in line with whatever the official deprecation policy is. For what it’s worth, PolyBase does not appear to be used within the numpy code base anymore, so the question is whether downstream libraries have had sufficient time (and notification) to remove PolyBase from their codebases.

to remove PolyBase from their codebases.

I thought it unlikely anyone was using it at the time, but played it safe. It can probably be removed without causing problems.
