Remove ./bin and ./utils

[axmmisaka]

This is from #1988

I am thinking removing all of them. Developers should know after building where the artifacts are, and handle PATH themselves should they wish to add these artifacts to their PATH. They should also run ./gradlew :cli:lfc:assemble at their pleasure. If they are not familiar with how to do so, using nightly would be a better idea.

After #1988 there would be a ton of stuff in ./bin. Yet (I think) these utility scropts doesn't really belong in this repo.

I have this feeling as some projects I've seen (like NSA's Ghidra) do this. Most projects don't have a script dedicated to help people execute the build process, rather they simply point developers to the right direction in README. I think we should do that, but that's my €0.02.

One more reason:

PS: These scripts are kind of a PITA here; bash and pwsh are cross platform, but the scripts are assuming platform based on what people use; I say it's gradle's fault
lfc-dev won't work on MSysGit/git bash, and lfc-dev.ps1 won't work on linux pwsh.

utils already got removed by #1995.

Personally, I find the bin scripts extremely useful. Not because I don't want to use gradle, but because I can run the script from anywhere in the filesystem (unlike gradle).

What do you mean by a "ton of stuff"?

I also find the scripts useful and would like to keep them. If we want to make it abundantly clear that this is just meant as dev tooliing, we could rename bin to .bin...

For the record, I really prefer to avoid hidden directories.

Me too. If we rename it, it should probably be to dev. But at the moment I don't see a compelling reason for doing so.

OK, then let's resolve this as a wontfix.
