build: Drop --enable-old-bridge configure option
This isn't supported on the main branch any more since we dropped supprot for RHEL 8. This was already cleaned up in the spec file and tests. HACK_SPEC_FOR_PYTHON is also not a thing any more.
Also clean up the four ws tests which we haven't run any more since then.
Much of src/bridge can also go now, but we'll leave that for #20000. As automake requires a defined conditional for if, define an always-false WITH_OLD_BRIDGE for now.
NB: This is not the big cleanup from #20000 yet. I added that conditional hack specifically to avoid that :grin: A lot of that can happen now, but @allisonkarlitskaya reserved that fun for her. I mostly just want to get rid of the OLD_BRIDGE configure stuff as I keep running into it while working on #19441
@allisonkarlitskaya: This doesn't block me after all, so I'll leave it up to you what you want to do with this -- land, reject, or expand into #20000.
@jelly yes, it is -- this does not drop cockpit-pcp, nor does it drop the cockpit-bridge code. See the details in the PR description. This only drops the --enable-old-bridge config option, which we really should have done months ago.

Right, but can I still then build cockpit-pcp easily after this?
@jelly yes, both cockpit-pcp and cockpit-ssh are still built from C sources today, they don't count as "old". This only applies to cockpit-bridge itself.
