Remove mentions of packages KASH and Macaulay2 from tutorials

[dimpase]

These packages are long gone, yet

grep -R KASH src/doc
grep -R Macaulay src/doc

return hits such as Macaulay and KASH are Sage packages etc.

We should also remove these from src/bin/sage (best to base on top of #29111 or wait until the next beta when it should be merged).

In fact git grep -w -i kash . returns lots of hits which should be fixed.

Changed keywords from none to kash, macaulay2

We no longer have SPKGs for them, but still have interfaces to them.

Our interfaces should still work if Sage finds them installed separately.

Macaulay2 and its interface certainly are maintained, not sure about Kash.

I was thinking about removing all references to packages, e.g., commands like sage -i kash. Probably remove the doctests in tests/cmdline.py about kash. Certainly keep the interface files, but with a change in the instructions for how to install kash, at least. The instructions at the top of interfaces/macaulay2.py are not obviously out of date.

I wonder if we should remove sage --kash and sage --M2. Anyway, here is a first draft. I tried to deal with translations, but I probably messed some up, I did Russian only partly, and I didn't do Japanese at all.

I added a link to the kash web page (http://page.math.tu-berlin.de/~kant/kash.html), but that page says it hasn't been changed since 2008. So I'm not very confident that it will work, and the top of our file interfaces/kash.py says "It is not enough to just have KASH installed on your computer", whatever that means.

Hopefully a Japanese speaker can take care of the Japanese tutorial.

Looks good to me. More refinements and translations can be done on follow-up tickets.
