remove old branches

This is done now. All of the branches were fully merged except for v1.1.x which had a single line change to contents.rst which ended up on the main branch through other means.

I have local branches pointing to all of the removed branches so if there is panic about their removal and everyone runs a prune command on the upstream repos we still have this information around.

I left rgb2lab_local because there is still an open PR against it, but will go away when we close that PR.

Having old branches around can lead to confusion (see

Seems to me like a good idea.

I removed the rgb2lab_local branch now (I decided that this is not the way to go and I have a local copy in my own remote of this). On a related note should be consider removing tags for old release candidates? I know that IPython does this and it does clean up the tags quite a bit since approximately half the tags are for release candidates.
