Removing sample client.conf from /etc/cups is upstream's decision.

Remove sample client.conf file - not needed.
------------------------------------------------------------------------

But there are client.conf(5) man page and online document
(http://localhost:631/help/ref-client-conf.html).

Providing /etc/cups/client.conf by cupsys-client package
may be too noisy for people who has own client.conf.

So I think it would be nice we have sample client.conf in
/usr/share/doc/cupsys-client/example directory.
Well, could someone make it with refering client.conf of 1.1
and manpage of 1.2?
I have no confidence in my English skill. :)
