Chord names clean-up; no more Banter, exceptionsPartial or \powerChords.

This rather large patch

  - removes the legacy code for unsupported non-Ignatzek chord names;
that code hasn’t been working properly for nearly 15 years anyway, see
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2008-08/msg00288.html

  - stores a version of this code, with minor corrections, as a
self-contained snippet (for historical purposes mainly), both
on the LSR (as an upgrade to snippet #102) and in a dedicated
subsection of the Snippets doc page.

  - as a result, chord-generic-names.scm is no longer found in scm/
and the chord-names-jazz.ly doc chart no longer includes any
alternative chord naming systems (that were already broken anyway).

  - chordNamesExceptionsFull and chordNamesExceptionsPartial
properties have been removed as well (both having no longer had
any effect whatsoever for quite some time).

  - the main (and now only) chordNamesExceptions property def
has been slightly updated for slightly neater glyphs and spacing,
and so as to now include power chords by default; as a result,
\powerChords is no longer needed, thereby solving any possible
confusion with \germanChords and the like. (I can’t think of any
case where users would explicitely type \chords{c:5} in order to
get the same output as \chords{c} -- can you?)

  - the documentation has been updated as well; convert rules
have been added (although these may be merged with previous
2.21.0 rules once the release cycle gets back on track).
