remove-dead-entries.yml

# Removes the entries whose AppImage has been gone for months: an open
# entry-unavailable issue ("Where did the AppImage of NAME go?", from
# ping-authors.yml) at least 90 days old that nobody answered, and whose entry
# code/check-entry.sh still finds dead right now. code/remove-dead-entries.sh
# removes them (data/, database/, apps/) in one commit on master and closes the
# issues with a comment. A new pull request brings an application back.
# Manual only, a dry run by default.
