localedata: LC_IDENTIFICATION: delete uncommon fields

Very few locales set audience/application/abbreviation, and
even the ones that do, set them largely to default/useless
values.  Drop them from the few locales until we decide we
want to set these everywhere (to something useful).

They do not appear to be usefully populated with data at present.

+1 for dropping current entries, but I'd like to know more about the
intended use of these fields.

ISO 30112 WD10 [2014] says:

audience
	If not for general use, an indication of the intended user
	audience. This keyword is optional.

application
	If for use of a special application, a description of the
	application. This keyword is optional.

abbreviation
	Short name for provider of the source. This keyword is
	optional.

i'm not sure any of these would really be usefully set in glibc.

Thank you for the additional information.  I agree they do not seem
well suited for use in glibc, but it is good that specialized uses
could be backfilled locally with localedef to insert modified locales
with additions if needed.

Still +1 for dropping in current entries.
