Subject: [PATCH 1/2] feat: disable links no longer relevant post-conference

Disable ticket, remote, and visa page links site-wide, by removing them from the menus and placing a TODO to re-enable next year.

The pages themselves still exist.

The remote ticket banner at the top of the site was also hidden.
