Remove our old ctags and suggest Universal Ctags instead.
This fixes a FIXME in lib-src/Makefile.in and speeds up compilation
quite a bit on my older CPU when I compile with --enable-gcc-warnings.
It also lessens installation and runtime footprint. (Bug#76322)

* admin/authors.el (authors-renamed-files-alist): Remove ctags.1.

* The Emacs Lisp Reference Manual is quite large. It totals around
1100 pages in smallbook format; the info files total around 3.0 megabytes.
* You can format this manual for Info, for printing hardcopy using TeX,
or for HTML.
* You can buy nicely printed copies from the Free Software Foundation.
Buying a manual from the Free Software Foundation helps support our GNU
development work. See <https://shop.fsf.org/>.
(At time of writing, this manual is out of print.)
* The master file for formatting this manual for Tex is called 'elisp.texi'.
It contains @include commands to include all the chapters that make up
the manual.
* This distribution contains a Makefile that you can use with GNU Make.
** To make an Info file, you need to install Texinfo, then run 'make info'.
** Use 'make elisp.pdf' or 'make elisp.html' to create PDF or HTML versions.
