remove Dynamical Billiards version 3.5.2 since it is impossible to install due to empty compat range

[KristofferC]

The version spec 0.5.2 - 0.2 for MuladdMacro for DynamicalBilliards at version 3.5.2 is empty. Installing it is impossible. This fact also makes it a bit weird for tools that rewrite the registry so it is best to remove it.

julia> Pkg.Versions.VersionSpec("0.5.2 - 0.2")
VersionSpec("∅")

(jl_QrFp3d) pkg> add DynamicalBilliards@3.5.2

This patch was created by deleting the version from Versions.toml and then reloading + resaving the registry data for DynamicalBilliards

[DilumAluthge]

For context, this is the Project.toml for DynamicBilliards 3.5.2:

name = "DynamicalBilliards"
uuid = "4986ee89-4ee5-5cef-b6b8-e49ba721d7a5"
repo = "https://github.com/JuliaDynamics/DynamicalBilliards.jl.git"
version = "3.5.2"

[deps]
Elliptic = "b305315f-e792-5b7a-8f41-49f472929428"
MuladdMacro = "46d2c3a1-f734-5fdb-9937-b9b9aeba4221"
Requires = "ae029012-a4dd-5104-9daa-d747884805df"
StaticArrays = "90137ffa-7385-5640-81b9-e52037218182"

[compat]
julia = "≥ 1.0.0"
MuladdMacro = "≥ 0.5.2"
StaticArrays = "≥ 0.8.2"
Elliptic = "≥ 0.5.0"

Here is what I suspect happened:

1. DynamicBilliards 3.5.2 was registered with a Project.toml file that contains the compat entry MuladdMacro = "≥ 0.5.2". In the registry, this is stored as MuladdMacro = "0.5.2 - *".
2. Sometime later, we did a registry-wide RetroCapping. At the time that we did the RetroCapping, the latest registered release of MuladdMacro was 0.2.x. ¹. Therefore, in the registry, RetroCap changes MuladdMacro = "0.5.2 - *" to MuladdMacro = "0.5.2 - 0.2".

I think we have two options here:

1. Completely remove DynamicBilliards 3.5.2 from the registry.
2. Make both of the following changes:
   • In the registry, change the compat entry (for DynamicBilliards 3.5.2 only) from MuladdMacro = "0.5.2 - 0.2" to MuladdMacro = "0.2 - 0.2", which is likely a more accurate representation of what the package authors intended.
   • Yank DynamicBilliards 3.5.2

Footnotes

1. I know that this is true, because today, the latest registered release of MuladdMacro is still 0.2.x: https://github.com/JuliaRegistries/General/blob/master/M/MuladdMacro/Versions.toml ↩

Since it is literally uninstallable I think it is fine to delete it like is done here. It won't break instantiate. Changing to 0.2-0.2 also works.

The yank option is not great because after normalization (#65997) this will turn into an empty range which is printed as [] which I am not sure even parses back as a VersionRange.
