tty: Remove redundant synclink driver
A note from the vendor:
"The hardware used with synclink.c and synclinkmp.c has not been
manufactured for 15 years and was low volume. The chances of either
driver still being in use is very low. Not even Microgate (me) has
the ability to test either anymore (no hardware). I don’t know the
policy about driver removal, but I think both could be removed
without upsetting anyone."
