Remove ia64-linux-gnu
Linux 6.7 removed ia64 from the official tree [1], following the general
principle that a glibc port needs upstream support for the architecture
in all the components it depends on (binutils, GCC, and the Linux
kernel).

Apart from the removal of sysdeps/ia64 and sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/ia64,
there are updates to various comments referencing ia64 for which removal
of those references seemed appropriate. The configuration is removed
from README and build-many-glibcs.py.

The CONTRIBUTED-BY, elf/elf.h, manual/contrib.texi (the porting
mention), *.po files, config.guess, and longlong.h are not changed.

For Linux it allows cleanup some clone2 support on multiple files.

The following bug can be closed as WONTFIX: BZ 22634 [2], BZ 14250 [3],
BZ 21634 [4], BZ 10163 [5], BZ 16401 [6], and BZ 11585 [7].

 If you are installing @theglibc{} on @gnulinuxsystems{}, you need to have
 the header files from a 3.2 or newer kernel around for reference.
-(For the ia64 architecture, you need version 3.2.18 or newer because this
-is the first version with support for the @code{accept4} system call.)
 These headers must be installed using @samp{make headers_install}; the
 headers present in the kernel source directory are not suitable for
 direct use by @theglibc{}.  You do not need to use that kernel, just have
