{{{
#!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="60644"
Users: Remove deprecated user contact methods.
The three default contact methods (AIM, Yahoo IM, Jabber) were removed for
new installations in WordPress 3.6.
This commit removes the remaining references from the codebase, as the
associated services were discontinued quite a while ago.
The `user_contactmethods` filter is available for adding or removing
contact methods.
Follow-up to [23588], [25606].
Props butterflymedia, birgire, Presskopp, yashjawale, SergeyBiryukov.
Fixes #44374.
