scheme and autotools removals

The plan is to have geiser-core contain only, well, the elisp core
engine.  The autotools scafolding is no really worth it, so it's gone
too (and in the process, i'll look younger).

+     in the REPL.

+
+  New features:
+
+   - Geiser is now available from MELPA, with the help of Steve Purcell.
+   - Racket: new commands geiser-racket-{show, hide, toggle}-submodules,

+     within their scope).

+     geiser-eval-buffer-and-go (C-c M-b), by Nick Parker.

+     idea of B Batsov.
+

+
+   - Autodoc for Guile 2.0.9+'s subr fixed, thanks to Ludovic Courtès.
+   - Fixed problem when saving REPL history that contained non-ASCII
+     chars: all UTF-8 characters should be fair game now.

+     session.el (by not letting the latter handle it).
+   - Paths in `geiser-load-path' are now also added to

+     will ask for confirmation before killing a buffer with a live
+     REPL process.

+     them (thanks to Diogo).

+
+* Version 0.3 (Jan 19, 2013)

+   - Racket: correctly jumping to symbols defined in files with .ss
+     extension.
+
+  New features:
+
+   - Racket: autodoc now displays argument names for constructors
+     defined by define-type (from either plai or plai-type).

+      current module even before the define-module form (fixes bug
+      #33497).
