Removed implementation-specific material from repository.
The C and JS implementations are being split off into different repositories. This repository will just have the spec itself.

-To run these benchmarks, use `make bench PROG=/path/to/program`.
-
-The input text is a 11MB Markdown file built by concatenating the
-Markdown sources of all the localizations of the first edition of
-[*Pro Git*](https://github.com/progit/progit/tree/master/en) by Scott Chacon.
-
-`time` is used to measure execution speed. The reported
-time is the *difference* between the time to run the program
-with the benchmark input and the time to run it with no input.
-(This procedure ensures that implementations in dynamic languages are
-not penalized by startup time.) Amedian of ten runs is taken. The
-process is reniced to a high priority so that the system doesn't
-interrupt runs.
