Hi,

This is a cleanup on "C Compiler for PIC24 MCUs and dsPIC DSCs" packages
in aur.

Please delete [1]hitech-dspicc-bin, it's only needed for really old code.
But it is still working ? then i would rather keep it in.
Yes, still working, I only used it to test some code before converting
it to other compiler, microchip bought hitech but now let compiler to
die, it never had any vote so I don't even know if someone use it.
So, still working, if you think it should not be deleted, for me I see
no problem.

Please merge [2]microchip-mplabc30_bin into [3]microchip-mplabxc16-bin,
c30 was replaced by XC16, I keep it for compability and because XC16 is
too new, but since C30 don't like to work anymore with arch glibc is
better simple move on to XC16.
microchip-mplabc30_bin is also still working fine ?
does the package microchip-mplabxc16-bin provide all the same
functionallity ?
C30 was broken for several times, I always find I way to keep it
running, but it's broken again and I think it's time to move on, because
XC16 is just a new version of C30 with very small changes, so basically
a rename from C30 to XC16. Almost 100% of C30 code compile in XC16
without any change. Also microchip never made C30 for Linux official,
but XC16 was released was a replacement for C30 with official support
for Win/Linux/Mac.

Thanks, keep the good work.
