scepclient: Remove documentation about removal of scepclient
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.

## 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.
