Remove the CrowdSec decision feed (closes #315)
check / check (push) Failing after 2m23s

sneak ruled to remove it. Gone: the heuristic crowdsec, the ban cause
crowdsec and its earlier_bans count, the tag crowdsec, the settings
SWW_WAF_CROWDSEC_LAPI_URL and SWW_WAF_CROWDSEC_LAPI_KEY, the decision
list fetch and parse in internal/reputation, their tests, and every
mention in the README, SPEC.md and docs/. EVALUATION.md keeps its
comparison of tools.

The ban ledger's internal ban function loses its expires parameter,
which only CrowdSec bans used.
