commit: remove special handling of IOError (actually dead code)
In the past, IOError was used to mark a file as removed. The differentiation
between OSError and IOError in this place was introduced in
e553a425751d, to
avoid that “normal” OSErrors / IOErrors accidentally mark files as removed.
This weird internal API was removed in
650b5b6e75ed. It seems like that
changeset should have removed the differentiation, at least I don’t see any
reason for keeping it.
On Python 3, OSError and IOError are aliased. Therefore the removed code was
actually dead.

'''command to delete untracked files from the working directory (DEPRECATED)
The functionality of this extension has been included in core Mercurial since
version 5.7. Please use :hg:`purge ...` instead. :hg:`purge --confirm` is now
the default, unless the extension is enabled for backward compatibility.

# This empty extension looks pointless, but core mercurial checks if it's loaded
# to implement the slightly different behavior documented above.
# Note for extension authors: ONLY specify testedwith = 'ships-with-hg-core' for
# extensions which SHIP WITH MERCURIAL. Non-mainline extensions should
# be specifying the version(s) of Mercurial they are tested with, or
# leave the attribute unspecified.
