Withdraw ECIP-1049: "Change the ETC Proof of Work Algorithm to Keccak…

…256" (#486)

There has not been any active work on this for several months.
There is not clear consensus on activation of the feature.
We have also missed the boat to make a transition prior to Ethereum's "The Merge" event, and the anticipated flood of hashrate into ETC.

### Work in Progress

Work in progress (WIP) -- An ECIP where the author has asked the Ethereum Classic community whether an idea has any chance of support, he/she will write a draft ECIP as a pull request. However, if the idea is still in a very early stage, and will have a lot of commits and changes by the author, editors or contributors, it may be better to enter it as a WIP. Make sure to add [WIP] in the title (example: [WIP] ECIP-X) of the early stage ECIP so other members can mute it if they are not interested in participating at this stage.

### Abstract

A proposal to replace the current Ethereum Classic proof of work algorithm Etchash with Keccak-256.
