tape390: Remove tape390_display and tape390_crypt

The tape390_display tool was used to send text to the display of tape
storage server. The corresponding command is still accepted by the
Virtual Tape Server (VTS) but no action is performed. The tool is
useless, remove it.

The tape390_crypt tool was used to manage encryption for tape devices.
However, only 3590/3592 models did support encryption. Support for these
models is removed from the Kernel as there is no support for these tape
models in general anymore. The tool is not required anymore, remove it.

Note: VTS uses encryption transparantly for its virtualized 3490 models.
