toil: drop

This package has been broken since 24.05 (`pkg_resources` error when
running `toil --help`), and hasn’t built since Python 3.12 became
the default. There have been two major upstream releases since this
package was last updated. I tried to package the newest version, which
drops the boto dependency, but unfortunately it requires obsolete
versions of other Python libraries that we no longer package. Since
it’s been broken for this long anyway and can’t be updated,
let’s drop it for now.
