Subject: [PATCH] remove the stale .gitmodules

It declares a mediawiki-php-wikidiff2 submodule, but there is no gitlink
for it in the index and no such directory on disk, so `git submodule`
has nothing to act on. Leftover from 5a3e410, when wikidiff2 persistence
was first being tried; the wikidiff2 source now reaches wikiq through
pywikidiff2 instead.

It was also being swept into the source distribution.
