sound: Retire OSS
Since no complaints have been raised after disabling the build of OSS (Open Sound System) by the commit 31cbee6a5611 ("sound: Disable the build of OSS drivers"), let's finally drop the whole code and documentation. Some glue codes are still left intact since sound/oss/dmasound stuff remains -- which is an independent implementation solely for m68k, and it's not covered by ALSA yet. Also, a couple of API header files (linux/sound.h and linux/soundcard.h) are kept remaining as well, since the OSS API itself is still supported by ALSA OSS emulation, and applications can refer to these. Where we're at it, some help texts in the top-level Kconfig are adjusted, too (who still needs to specify I/O port in kbuild nowadays?).

If you have a sound card in your computer, i.e. if it can say more
- than an occasional beep, say Y. Be sure to have all the information
- about your sound card and its configuration down (I/O port,
- interrupt and DMA channel), because you will be asked for it.

- You want to read the Sound-HOWTO, available from
- <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. General information about
- the modular sound system is contained in the files
- <file:Documentation/sound/oss/Introduction>. The file
- <file:Documentation/sound/oss/README.OSS> contains some slightly
- outdated but still useful information as well. Newer sound
- driver documentation is found in <file:Documentation/sound/alsa/*>.

- If you have a PnP sound card and you want to configure it at boot
- time using the ISA PnP tools (read
- <http://www.roestock.demon.co.uk/isapnptools/>), then you need to
- compile the sound card support as a module and load that module
- after the PnP configuration is finished. To do this, choose M here
- and read <file:Documentation/sound/oss/README.modules>; the module
- will be called soundcore.
