Remove parser for Sager dump format.
While testing prototype code for RTCM2 JSON parsing, I discovered that the code for undumping RTCM2 from Sager textual format stopped working years ago, in a subtle way that passed its regression tests. Nobody noticed, probably because nobody has ever used it. This was probably the dustiest corner in the entire gpsd codebase. I'm simply dropping the entire mess out. We'll get back an equivalent capability for free when I finish writing the code for filling struct rtcm2 from JSON.
