Mir: Remove this experimental backend

Browse Source 
As of the release of Mir 1.0, libmirclient has been deprecated[1] and
its developers recommend clients using it to switch to Wayland.  This
patch removes support for libmirclient and instruct users to use the
experimental Wayland backend instead.

@subsection news_33_mir_removal Experimental Mir support has been removed
As per the release of Mir 1.0, the recommended API is now Wayland, the
experimental Mir display server backend introduced in GLFW 3.1 has thus been
removed. To use the experimental Wayland backend, pass -DGLFW_USE_WAYLAND=ON
to cmake where you previously passed the now-removed -DGLFW_USE_MIR=ON.
