David A. Harding 8d6972d719 Libbitcoin bx: remove all mentions of vulnerable tool
- Remove appendix dedicated to `bx`.  They had already been slated for
  deletion, as I wrote to a reviewer on 2023-07-27: "I'm also probably
  going to delete the library/tool focused appendixes as I don't think
  they add anything".  After the disclosure of CVE-2023-39910 on August
  8th, it's clear that this appendix was worse than useless: it was
  harmful.

- Remove other mentions of `bx` in the book.  I had not previously
  intended this because it looked like a pain, but mentions of a tool
  often come across as endorsements to readers and no tool created by
  the team behind Libbitcoin is one I would ever want to endorse.  I
  regret that I didn't remove the mentions earlier in the process of
  updating the book.

- Remove appendix dedicated to pycoin.  I'm now aware of any problems
  with pycoin, but I don't think these sort of short detached tutorials
  add anything.  Programming Bitcoin is an entire book built on pycoin,
  and all of these tools have their own webpages that get updated more
  frequently than the book.
