llvm dev - Aug 2016 - Propose deleting the core, sample, support, llvm-top, and website dirs.

I'd like to "svn rm" these basically-dead directories from
llvm's svn repo.

Proposed commit message
======================Remove dead projects: core, sample, support, llvm-top,
website.

core/support:

Was added in in 2007 (r39913/r39914) to start to split off some of
llvm into smaller libraries. Was abandoned by December 2007, last
commit to support is r44863, core never got a commit.

llvm-top:

Was added in 2007 in r37869, as a convenience to check out and build
multiple llvm projects, as part of the above plan to split things
apart. Last touched in 2009, r62840. As far as I know, completely
non-functional today.

sample:

Was added in 2007 in r39940, and last touched late 2007 at r40403. Not
actually a useful sample.

website:

Was added in 2007, r37886. Last update in 2007, r40389.
Note: the real website lives in "www", not here.

FWIW, LGTM. All of this dates from Reid's efforts around HLVM and
refactoring LLVM into more modular components. While we might well return
to such goals, I don't think the current SVN trees are going to help anyone
do so...

Chris can probably give a more definitive final answer here though.
