Add a WARN message to the status log when a test runs with
profile_only=True but no profilers set up. It's all too easy to make
this mistake (e.g. tweaking a control file set up for profiling runs
to turn off the profilers, but forgetting to remove the profile_only)
and it leads to lots of confusion when the test successfully runs
with zero iterations.
