libgnome-keyring was deprecated in 2014 (in favor of libsecret), more
than nine years ago [1].
The credential helper implemented using libgnome-keyring has had a small
handful of commits since 2013, none of which implemented or changed any
functionality. The last commit to do substantial work in this area was
15f7221686 (contrib/git-credential-gnome-keyring.c: support really
ancient gnome-keyring, 2013-09-23), just shy of nine years ago.
This credential helper suffers from the same `fgets()`-related injection
attack (using the new "wwwauth[]" feature) as in the previous commit.
Instead of patching it, let's remove this helper as deprecated.
