Remove tor-fw-helper code
It did a good idea, but the code-quality of libupnpc and libnatpnp is so dodgy that I'm not really comfortable including them alongside Tor proper. Instead, we'll recommend that people do the pure-go reimplementation instead. Closes ticket 13338.

+ o Removed code:
+ - The internal pure-C tor-fw-helper tool is now removed from the
+ Tor distribution, in favor of the pure-Go clone available from
+ https://github.com/Yawning/tor-fw-helper . The libraries used
+ by the C tor-fw-helper are not, in our opinion, very confidence-
+ inspiring in their secure-proggramming techniques. Closes ticket 13338.
