Prevent a git lfs error that was caused by accidentally checking storing a .gitattributes file
in gitlfs.
When checkout out the repository for the first time or moving from an old commit to a newish one, there's been an error report from git lfs. This was caused by accidentally checking a .gitattributes file into git-lfs which then is read as part of the git lfs checkout process, but since the file is tracked by lfs at the point of checkout it is an lfs stub and throws an error.
The problem was introduced here: #6694
See below to reproduce:
This fixes the problem going forward by removing the file.
