Remove F-Droid until we can make a FSDG compliant version

Browse Source 
It's been more than one year that Replicant is aware that
shipping F-Droid as-is is not compliant with the Free System
Distrbution Guidelines(FSDG)[1].

This is beacause we hoped to resolve the issue upstream in
a timely manner, but that didn't happen.

As we now focus on a longer term solution[2], it doesn't make
any sense to keep F-Droid as-is in Replicant.

That new approach would enable to have an extremely low
maintenance cost for both F-Droid and Replicant if it
is merged upstream.

It would also enable users and developers of other
Android distributions to use it.
