Feature #5480: remove GServer from stdlib

=begin
I propose removing the gserver library from Ruby's stdlib.

People should not use it for the following reasons:

* It has no tests at all.
* It does something completely different than it claims to do (the docs say it manages a thread pool, while in reality it creates a new thread for every incoming connection).
* It is not maintained.

For instance, Net::HTTPServer (https://github.com/postmodern/net-http-server) uses GServer for concurrency. Removing GServer and just serving one request at a time improves performance drastically.
