runtime(tutor): Make all tutor files utf-8 only

Browse Source 
In this commit, all legacy encodings for tutor files are removed.

* All the tutor files `tutor1.xx` and `tutor2.xx` are now `utf-8`
* All `README.xx.txt` files are now `utf-8`
* All makefiles are removed, as they are no longer needed
* The `tutor.vim` script is simplified
* The `README` indicates `utf-8` as a requirement
* update vimtutor.bat file

In 2025, there is no realistic scenario where a beginner starts the Vim
9.1 tutor on a machine that lacks UTF-8 support.
This change will ease the maintenance of the tutor files. Cf #17562 for
an example.

Translation
-----------
The files tutor1.xx and tutor1.xx.utf-8 for chapter one and tutor2.xx and
tutor2.xx.utf-8 for chapter two of the tutorial are translated files (where xx
is the language code).
The encoding of tutor1.xx or tutor2.xx might be latin1 or other traditional
encoding. If you don't need a translation with such traditional encoding,
you just need to prepare the tutor1.xx.utf-8 or tutor2.xx.utf-8 file.
If you need another encoding, you can also prepare a file named tutor1.xx.enc or
tutor2.xx.enc (replace enc with the actual encoding name). You might also need
to adjust the tutor.vim file.
The "make" command can be used for creating tutor1.xx or tutor2.xx from
tutor.xx.utf-8 or tutor2.xx.utf-8, respectively.
See the Makefile for detail. (For some languages, tutor1.xx.utf-8 is created
from tutor1.xx for historical reasons.)
The files tutor1.xx for chapter one and tutor2.xx chapter two of the tutorial
are translated files (where xx is the language code).
The encoding of tutor1.xx and tutor2.xx must be utf-8.
