Remove failing ConnectDistributedTest.test_bad_connector_class Since #1911 was merged it is hard to externally test a connector transitioning to FAILED state due to an initialization failure, which is what this test was attempting to verify. The unit test added in #1778 already exercises exception-handling around Connector instantiation.
