precheck: remove obsolete comment

It was added in 65d4e47d7f26, and applied to the code that was executed if the
if block right above this line (i.e. one that returns the result of core
precheck) did not run (in other words, it applied to the imaginary "else"
clause). Now we have a different check in the if block above, and the
compatibility comment placed is above it. So let's remove this obsolete
comment that no longer applies.

- officially ship 'evolve.serveronly' extensions. That extensions contains
  only the part related to exchange and is intended to be used by server.

  Using the extension will enable evolution, use 'experimental.evolution=!'
  to disable obsmarkers echange.  The old '__temporary__.advertiseobsolete'
  option is no longer supported.

- a new prototype of obsmarker discovery is available. The prototype is still
  at early stage and not recommended for production.
  Examples of current limitations:

  - write access to the repo is highly recommanded for all operation,
  - large memory footprint,
  - initial caching is slow,
  - unusable on large repo (because of various issue pointed earlier),
  - likely to constains various bugs.

  It can be tested by setting `experimental.obshashrange=1` on both client and
  server. It is recommanded to get in touch with the evolve maintainer if you
  decide to test it.

- the 'debugrecordpruneparents' have been moved into the 'evolve.legacy'
  separate extension. enable that extentions if you need to convert/update
  markers in an old repository.
