memdebug: remove 9 year old unused debug function

There used to be a way to have memdebug fill allocated memory. 9 years
later this has no value there (valgrind and ASAN etc are way better). If
people need to know about it they can have a look at VCS logs.

Closes #5973

/*
* Until 2011-08-17 libcurl's Memory Tracking feature also performed
* automatic malloc and free filling operations using 0xA5 and 0x13
* values. Our own preinitialization of dynamically allocated memory
* might be useful when not using third party memory debuggers, but
* on the other hand this would fool memory debuggers into thinking
* that all dynamically allocated memory is properly initialized.
*
* As a default setting, libcurl's Memory Tracking feature no longer
* performs preinitialization of dynamically allocated memory on its
* own. If you know what you are doing, and really want to retain old
* behavior, you can achieve this compiling with preprocessor symbols
* CURL_MT_MALLOC_FILL and CURL_MT_FREE_FILL defined with appropriate
* values.
