package/zeek: remove package

In [1], Bernd notes:

  Our zeek release 4.1.1 dates back to 2021 with > 8000 patches
  applied to upstream since then, current version is
  8.1.1. Backporting python- related patches to fix the build of
  zeekctl looks really difficult due to many changes in the 3rd-party
  libraries/submodules used by zeek.

Since the package is not maintained, and is causing build issues in
our autobuilders with recent gcc versions, let's drop the package.

Fixes:
