contrib: remove "emacs" directory

While the "emacs/" directory still exists, all of its code has been
replaced with stubs in 6d5ed4836db (git{,-blame}.el: remove old
bitrotting Emacs code, 2018-04-11). Instead, the recommendation is to
use Emacs' own vc-annotate mode.

Remove the code altogether.

-This directory used to contain various modules for Emacs support.
-
-These were added shortly after Git was first released. Since then
-Emacs's own support for Git got better than what was offered by these
-modes. There are also popular 3rd-party Git modes such as Magit which
-offer replacements for these.
-
-The following modules were available, and can be dug up from the Git
-history:
-
-* git.el:
-
-  Wrapper for "git status" that provided access to other git commands.
-
-  Modern alternatives to this include Magit, and VC mode that ships
-  with Emacs.
-
-* git-blame.el:
-
-  A wrapper for "git blame" written before Emacs's own vc-annotate
-  mode learned to invoke git-blame, which can be done via C-x v g.
-
-* vc-git.el:
-
-  This file used to contain the VC-mode backend for git, but it is no
-  longer distributed with git. It is now maintained as part of Emacs
-  and included in standard Emacs distributions starting from version
-  22.2.
-
-  If you have an earlier Emacs version, upgrading to Emacs 22 is
-  recommended, since the VC mode in older Emacs is not generic enough
-  to be able to support git in a reasonable manner, and no attempt has
-  been made to backport vc-git.el.
