the util/ directory has a bunch of python and perl code in it.

Some of that code appears to be related to managing IDL files, which we haven't needed since enigmail went javascript-only.

Other parts appear to be jarfile creation or other steps that might not be necessary for building or running enigmail (for example, inclusion of a copy of the python ply library looks both out of date and unnecessary.

Still other parts are part of the test suite or are useful for simple code scans.

while we should keep the test suite and code scans, we should remove the unnecessary code to make the source package simpler.
