Remove more project ideas, bump torbutton for thunderbird priority
Using Webmail is cumbersome, so many people ask how to torify their
Thunderbird. We don't have a Torbutton-like app available, but that
would be great. Thus the priority isn't low.
Removed ideas:
- tuneup Tor: The entry misrepresents the current state, and also
is pretty much done, afaict.
- Intermediate level network device driver: Since Martin pretty
much abandoned Tor, we don't have a good mentor for the project.
Also, torvm would be the main benefactor here, and that depends
on Martin, too.
