    porters-handbook: Remove shar(1) file submission
    
    In contrast to the evolution of git there is no point in entertaining
    shar files anymore. It was a good solution during the days of cvs/svn
    but with git workflow this is counter productive for committers and
    often the cause of INDEX break as the committers forget to add in the
    relevant categories Makefile.
