vectorise: Put it out of its misery
Poor DPH and its vectoriser have long been languishing; sadly it seems there is
little chance that the effort will be rekindled. Every few years we discuss
what to do with this mass of code and at least once we have agreed that it
should be archived on a branch and removed from `master`. Here we do just that,
eliminating heaps of dead code in the process.
Here we drop the ParallelArrays extension, the vectoriser, and the `vector` and
`primitive` submodules.
