emacsWithPackages: do not symlink $emacs/share/emacs

I see no reason to symlink this dir.

Doing so may shadow unwanted libraries since the site-start.el of
Emacs adds paths under NIX_PROFILES to load-path.

It is added in [1] to fix "building emacs". However, I have no issue
in building and using Emacs after removing it.
