Transforms cleanup

[ZackAttack614]

Overview

This PR removes a lot of unused and dead code from the transforms module of HEXRD. We aniticpate that this may affect users who have very old scripts (5 years or more) or others who have used the xf or old_xfcapi components of the library. As this code has not been supported in many years, it is time for this code to be removed from the library. We will support the transition to the newer code as needed, on a case-by-case basis.

Some documentation about transitioning from the old_xfcapi code can be found in the Wiki:

https://github.com/HEXRD/hexrd/wiki/old_xfcapi-Conversion-Guide

Affected Workflows

Users who have scripts which use the old_xfcapi or xf components of HEXRD's transforms module will need to move off of this and into the new API, using the conversion guide above.

Documentation Changes

Documentation regarding transition has been written, and uploaded into the Github Wiki. Documentation covering the removed code has been deleted.
