Tidy up .gitignore

Drop unused or stale lines.

 * While it's necessary to have .git and .hg in each others ignore files if
   using multiple SCMs (as we did for a while), they should not be in their
   own.  The mercurial files were dropped in commit ba5bae659d ("Drop
   remains of prior SCMs") (2023).

 * The ignore for LibVNCServer* was added by commit a090ca495e ("VNC pasword
   authentication support for the paravirt framebuffer server.")  (2006) but
   without justification or any obvious reason.

 * The ignore for tools/misc/lowmemd was added in commit c812282081 ("Low
   mem virq incremental adjustments") (2012), but xen-lowmemd (from the same
   author) already existed and was ignored properly.

 * tools/libs/guest/xc_* were added in commit af6c78d9dc ("tools: move
   libxenctrl below tools/libs") for bisectibility, but should have been
   dropped in the following change, commit e3dd624e48 ("tools/libxc: move
   libxenguest to tools/libs/guest").

 * tools/debugger/xenitp/ was dropped in commit e567964a54 ("tools: drop
   ia64 support") (2012).

 * tools/debugger/gdb/ was dropped in commit
   baa1aae9cf ("tools/debugger/gdb: Remove gdb") (2010).

 * tools/misc/cpuperf/ was dropped in commit ae95fdf65a ("[TOOLS] Remove the
   'cpuperf' misc tool.")  (2006).

 * tools/misc/xc_shadow was dropped in commit 7133144e3a ("Remove xc_shadow
   tool") (2007).

 * tools/misc/xen_cpuperf was dropped in commit 60eba9b0d2 ("Delete some
   unused tools") (2004).

 * tools/misc/xen-tmem-list-parse was dropped in commit c588c002cc ("tools:
   remove tmem code and commands") (2018).

No functional change.
