Summary: Scrap optional connid parameter from Tcl API

Initial Comment:
Some Tcl-API commands still accept optional connection-id
parameter which is left as the compatibility trace from
older
2.x nsd servers. This complicates argument processing and
serves no other obvious purpose.
The idea is to scrap this optional connid parsing from the
Tcl-API calls making them simpler to document and
implement.

I never used any code running for the 2.x servers hence 
for me it is OK to remove those. 

Any thoughts on that?

I removed connid suuport from conn.c and tclresp.c.  Is
there anything left?

I will do this on as-encountered basis. If others are about to
rewrite some command that still parses this ugly argument,
I suggest to remove it entirely. Furthermore, we should 
gradually start to use Stephens new tclobjv arg parsing.
Stephen, you mind checkin in some example command
rewrite so we can all see and use this as a guidance while
rewriting or implementing new parsers?

ns_conn  
ns_register_filter 
ns_return (some of them) 
 
They all accept a weird syntax: 
 
  <proc> ?connid? args 
 
which is PITA to parse and maintain. Yet, it is not used any 
more... It is only there to be able to run 2.x server-side Tcl 
code
