[PATCH wayland-web] Drop the ubuntu 12.04 build directions.

It is unlikely anyone still needs directions on how to install on this
old distro -- Ubuntu 12.04 is scheduled to hit end-of-life this April.

Further, no developers (to my knowledge) still test on 12.04, so the
directions have likely bitrotted anyway.  (Bill had a machine running
12.04 and was keeping the page updated, but last March indicated in
4fa80f28 he is no longer testing on it.  I myself moved off 12.04 some
time ago as well.)

For the most part, the directions are requiring a nearly full build of
the stack from source, thus is rather duplicative of the generic Wayland
build directions (which are more actively maintained).  Only a handful
of lower level X packages and some compiler tools are used from the
system.

-Building Weston on Ubuntu 12.04</h1>
-
-<p>The following sequence of commands successfully built Weston and
-XWayland on an Ubuntu 12.04 LTS system, on October 29 2014. This system had
-previously been used to compile Xlib programs, and thus already had
-some dependencies (such as git, the compiler, and X11 header files)
-installed. The commands have been updated for recent versions of
-Wayland but not tested.</p>
-
-<p>This is about the oldest version of Linux which can compile Weston.
-Newer Linux distributions should require fewer things to be compiled
-from git.</p>
-
-<p>Conversely, newer versions of the code, in particular Mesa, will
-probably require more dependencies than shown here.</p>
