rP5c1e4488deda: Remove all "Phabricator Bot" code

Summary

Closes T7829 as wontfix. Closes T7965 as wontfix. Closes T7800 as wontfix. Closes T2731 as wontfix. Closes T1271 as wontfix.

We aren't maintaining this at all (see, e.g., T7829) and a user reported a technically accurate security issue via HackerOne: https://hackerone.com/reports/222870

Just throw it away until we get to the eventual Conphernece bot/API update and can do this stuff correctly.

Test Plan

Grepped for phabricatorbot.

We use the bot quite heavily at my company. Is there anything stopping me from just copying the deleted code into a libphutil extension and continuing to use it? Really, PhabricatorBotLogHandler is what we care about most.

That'll work fine.

After 2.5 years of not upgrading because I didn't want to lose phabot, we finally have (went fairly smoothly yay). Is there a slightly less terse explanation for how I can do as @joshuaspence said? Or at least a pointer to the right documentation for such a project?
