remove old closed bugs and todo items to speed up wiki updates and reduce size

Remove closed bugs and todos that were least edited before 2014.

Command line used:

for f in $(grep -l '\[\[done\]\]' *.mdwn); do if [ -z $(git log --since=2014 --pretty=oneline "$f") ]; then git rm  $f; git rm -rf $(echo "$f" | sed 's/.mdwn$//'); fi; done

-I thought this might be useful, since curl is being used for the URL backend, it might be worth checking for it's existence.

-> Well, curl is an optional extra, so requireCmd is too strong. Changed
-> to testCmd and applied, thank you!
->
-> I thought about actually *using* the resulting SysConfig.curl
-> to disable the URL backend if False.. but probably it's better
-> to just let it fail if curl is not available. Although, if we wanted
-> to add a check for wget or something and use it when curl was not
-> available, that might be worth doing. --[[Joey]]

-also in Backend/URL.hs is it worth making a minor change to the way curl is called (I'm not sure if the following is correct or not)

-> It's correct, typewise, but I don't see any real reason to bother
