Clean stale branches which is not currently used

[hjkim17]

There are bunch of stale branches on the project. Many of them are not used currently, and it makes messy view on the project branches.

For the branch management, followings should be done.

1. make dev branch, which is a fork of the current master.
2. Each author of the stale branch should check whether the branch is bound to one or issues. 2-1. If the issue bound to the branch is already solved, merge it to the dev. 2-2. If the issue is not solved or the issue is long term issue, just change the branch name to the branch naming convention that previously we discussed. 2-3. If the branch is useless, backup and delete it (만약 지우게 될 경우 해당 branch로 체크아웃해서 백업부터 할 것).
3. Each author should check the corresponding stale branches below:

@Emegua , I removed the branch yg-pr-shadow-churn. Instead, I have merged it into develop branch. So, you can work on 'develop' branch for using Erebus prototype implementation.

From now on, please follow the branch management rules when you make any commit for this repository.

• Do not work on master branch. Instead work on develop branch.
• Whatever you want to add or modify on the repository, make a Github issue first.
• Create separate branch for the issue.
• Follow the branch-naming convention.
• When you want to add a feature/functionality/test which is relatively large, create a feature branch.
• Feature branch's naming convention is 'feature/<issue #>/\<description>'. For example, 'feature/128/sybil-API'.
• When you want to add a feature/functionality/test which is relatively small, create a issue branch.
• Issue branch's naming convention is 'issue/<issue #>'.
• When starting work on a new feature (branch), branch off from the develop branch.
• When starting work on a new issue (branch), branch off from the develop, or feature branch.

Thank you.
