drivers/net: delete old parallel port de600/de620 drivers

The parallel port is largely replaced by USB, and even in the day where these drivers were current, the documented speed was less than 100kB/s. Let us not pretend that anyone cares about these drivers anymore, or worse - pretend that anyone is using them on a modern kernel. As a side bonus, this is the end of legacy parallel port ethernet, so we get to drop the whole chunk relating to that in the legacy Space.c file containing the non-PCI unified probe dispatch.
