Solution: remove implementation. Laurent Alebarde <l.alebarde@free.fr>, the author, did not respond to requests to allow relicensing to MPL2, so we have to remove his copyrighted work. Make the API into an empty stub that returns -EOPNOTSUPP.
Solution: remove implementation. Frank Hartmann <soundart@gmx.net>, the author, rejected our request to relicense under MPL2, so we have to remove his copyrighted work. Tweetnacl is not security-supported and could not be used in production environments anyway, the supported backend is libsodium.
Solution: remove the implementation. Thijs Terlouw <thijsterlouw@gmail.com>, the author, did not respond to requests to allow relicensing to MPL2, so we have to remove his copyrighted work. Remove the implementation and make get/set return -EOPNOTSUPP.

Solution: remove contributions from said authors, and replace with empty stubs. If somebody is able to provide clean-room reimplementations, the stubs can be made into full APIs again. Maintain ABI compatibility.
