Remove shaarli and its dependency php-oscarotero-gettext from impish.
Per Debian's popcon, shaarli and php-oscarotero-gettext do not appear to
be widely installed (https://qa.debian.org/popcon.php?package=shaarli).

In LP: #1931315, the Laravel ecosystem (aka php-illuminate-*) was
removed from impish due to issues building and testing it with PHP 8,
newer PSR, and other newer php components.  php-oscarotero-gettext
depends on php-illuminate-database (c.f.
https://autopkgtest.ubuntu.com/results/autopkgtest-impish/impish/amd64/p
/php-oscarotero-gettext/20210611_231608_617be@/log.gz) and thus is now
uninstallable.  This in turn prevents php-twig and symfony from
migrating, which in turn hinder the PHP 8 migration.

The only thing needing shaarli is fbx-all, which Suggests it.  fbx-all
is a metapackage for the Freedombox hardware product's FOSS software.
Freedombox targets Debian specifically (not Ubuntu), so the impact of
not carrying shaarli in Ubuntu looks minimal.

$ apt-cache rdepends php-oscarotero-gettext

Reverse Depends:

$ apt-cache show fbx-all | grep shaarli
Suggests: ..., shaarli, ...
