Android: remove support for local/debug deployment option

This is only usable with versions of Android older than 5. Now that
Android 8 is the current version, we say goodbye to this feature as it
is almost certainly no longer of use to anyone.

To use Ministro to install the Qt libraries, select the

\section1 Deploying Qt Libraries for Debugging
To test your application on a device that is physically connected to the
development host (or on an emulator), you can copy the Qt libraries into a
temporary directory on your device and run the application against them.
An APK built in this way is not distributable, since it relies on the device
containing the Qt libraries in the correct location. However, as the Qt
libraries are only copied into the device once, this method provides a fast
turn-around time, and is therefore convenient for testing the application
during development.
Select the \uicontrol {Deploy local Qt libraries to temporary directory} option to
deploy Qt libraries to the \c{/data/local/tmp/qt} folder on the device and
to run the application against them.
\section1 Packaging Applications
Because bundling applications as APK packages is not
