Remove obsolete documentation build tools for Windows

The scripts and instructions have been nonfunctional at least since
PostgreSQL 10 (commit 510074f9f0131a04322d6a3d2a51c87e6db243f9) and
nobody has stepped up to fix them.  So right now just remove them until
someone wants to resurrect them.

-  Building the Documentation
-
-  
-   Building the PostgreSQL documentation in HTML format requires several tools
-   and files. Create a root directory for all these files, and store them
-   in the subdirectories in the list below.
-   
-    
-     OpenJade 1.3.1-2
-     
-      Download from
-      
-      and uncompress in the subdirectory openjade-1.3.1.
-     
-    
-
-    
-     DocBook DTD 4.2
-     
-      Download from
-      
-      and uncompress in the subdirectory docbook.
-     
-    
-
-    
-     ISO character entities
-     
-      Download from
-       and
-      uncompress in the subdirectory docbook.
-     
-    
-   
-   Edit the buildenv.pl file, and add a variable for the
-   location of the root directory, for example:
-
-$ENV{DOCROOT}='c:\docbook';
-
-   To build the documentation, run the command
-   builddoc.bat. Note that this will actually run the
-   build twice, in order to generate the indexes. The generated HTML files
-   will be in doc\src\sgml.
