pkg: remove support for autoload (automatically loading package at start).
* pkg.m, pkg/private/install.m, pkg/private/load_packages.m,
pkg/private/rebuild.m: remove support for automatically loading packages.
Having octave itself and the package manager automatically load packages
is a bad idea. If a user wants to load a package at startup then it should
specify it on its octaverc file. This can also be done on the system-wide
octaverc file. This also simplifies pkg (this patch only removes code).
* startup/version-rcfile: do not run 'pkg ("load", "auto")' at startup.
* doc/interpreter/package.txi: remove mention of package autoload from the
manual.
