The MSYS2 pacman fork modified --sysupgrade to first update core
packages, then other packages iff no core packages were upgraded, and
removed the now redundant update-core script [1]. This changes the
update procedure from

$ update-core
# restart MSYS2
$ pacman -Syu

to

$ pacman -Syu
# restart MSYS2
$ pacman -Syu

The change both breaks and obsoletes the dist-upgrade command. Rather
than fixing it, remove it entirely.
