scepclient: Remove documentation about removal of scepclient

Browse Source 
There should be no need for such a persistent documentation on a removed
component in the repository.  The commit history is enough.  And besides
that, there is user-facing documentation about it in the docs and the
changelog/NEWS.

# ipsec scepclient #
## Description ##
The `ipsec scepclient` tool was an early client implementation of the
_Simple Certificate Enrollment Protocol_ (SCEP).
The tool was written in 2005 and only got marginal updates since then. Hence it
implemented an old version of the SCEP Internet Draft (version 10/11 of
`draft-nourse-scep` and used the broken `MD5` hash and single `DES` encryption
algorithms as defaults.
## Obsolescence ##
With strongSwan version 5.9.8 `*ipsec scepclient*` has been removed and replaced
by the `pki` subcommands `pki --scep` and `pki --scepca` which implement the new
SCEP RFC 8894 standard that was released in September 2020 and which supports
trusted **certificate renewal** based on the existing client certificate.
