ENH: Disable the xmlrpc drop method by default

We've chosen to drop our default dependence on xmlrpc.  Thus we disable
the corresponding CTest submission method and remove the sources for
building xmlrpc locally.  Users can re-enable the method by setting the
CTEST_USE_XMLRPC option to use a system-installed xmlrpc library.
