Summary0005495: Terminate tdm_update support
DescriptionUnless something major happens, we are going to migrate to tdm_installer for publishing TDM.
Thus tdm_update will not work after 2.09.

The idea is to modify tdm_update in such a way that it posts a message like:
  tdm_update is no longer used. Please download tdm_installer from thedarkmod.com.
and exits.
The build of this new version can be put into our mirrors, so that self-update will download them automatically.
TagsNo tags attached.

All mirrors updated with the new tdm_update.

I should also remove tdm_update from manifest, so that it is not packaged into release (now I remove it manually).

It turns out that tdm_update 0.76 does NOT update to tdm_update 0.77 with the warning.
See discussion here:

I guess we should just remove old packages from our mirrors.
This way old tdm_update will simply not run (hopefully), which would clearly indicate that something went wrong.
Right now people with original 2.09 release have easy way to learn that their version is not up-to-date.

I deleted tdm_update data from mirrors when 2.10 was released.
