[toplevel] Remove unusable option -notop
Maxime points out that -notop cannot be used as the kernel requires all constants to belong into a module. Indeed: ``` $ rlwrap ./bin/coqtop -notop Coq < Definition foo := True. Toplevel input, characters 0-23: > Definition foo := True. > ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Error: No session module started (use -top dir) Coq < Module M. Definition foo := True. End M. Module M is defined Coq < Locate foo. Constant If you see this, it's a bug.M.foo (shorter name to refer to it in current context is M.foo) ``` My rationale for the removal is that this kind of incomplete features are often confusing to newcomers ─ it has happened to me many times ─ as it can be seen for example in #397 .
