contrib: remove mac-install-bundle.sh

This script was added in 6860c10 to allow testing a custom daemon in Docker Desktop, but has not been maintained since, and likely no longer functional, so let's remove.

contrib: remove editorconfig

This file was added in 962f347, at which
time there already were doubts about it being useful. For Go, gofmt
already dictates formatting (and proper editors would integrat with
that). For other languages, most editors would already have a config,
and our CI validates formatting for various files.

Give that the file was never updated since it was added, it's fair
to say that it's unmaintained. Let's remove.

- Human readable description for the release notes

contrib: remove `editorconfig` as it was unmaintained.

Sorry for intruding here, but what do you expect to change in a config file like for editorconfig, which sets editor settings? Those settings rarely change in a project and EditorConfig itself is pretty stable. Just because it has not changed in a while, doesn't say anything about if it's working as intended. Removing it just because it was not changed and you don't need it for your editor is irritating.
