Removed old office formats

Discussion in list starts here:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/libreoffice/2011-February/007085.html

Rational:
The usability problem I've seen is that users:
 * want to save in MS Word format, but don't know what version to use
 * the pick 6.0 or 95 thinking many different things (lower number
means it will work with more computers?)
 * since this is there only copy of the file, they lose all tables and more

I couldn't figure out how to do anything but remove them from the save as
dialog, patch is attached for that.
