Remove XFire reference documentation [SPR-7434]

[spring-projects-issues]

Chris Beams opened SPR-7434 and commented

As pointed out by #11998, the XFire documentation in the Remoting chapter of the reference docs is out of date, and does not reflect Codehaus' own succession of XFire by CXF.

@Rossen, assigning to you as I know you're familiar with the topic. Comment, fix, or re-assign as you see fit.

XFire is now CXF (per http://xfire.codehaus.org), and given that Spring
does not actually ship with any explicit XFire support, it makes sense
to remove the documentation completely.  CXF does provide support for
writing services with Spring, and they provide their own documentation.

See http://cxf.apache.org/docs/writing-a-service-with-spring.html

Note that I added as watchers to this issue everyone who showed up in `svn blame` for the XFire section of the remoting chapter.  If anyone takes issue with this removal, please speak up.
