Move r8125 and UrbanTerror to sbo-slackbuilds repo
These are danix SBo-official packages (UrbanTerror maintainership transfers on the pending SBo merge); they now live in the separate sbo-slackbuilds repository. Drop their package dirs, nvchecker stanzas, and README rows here.

-r8125 is the out-of-tree Linux kernel driver for Realtek RTL8125 and
-RTL8125B 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet controllers with PCI-Express interface.
-It provides complete 2.5Gbps support not available in the in-tree r8169
-driver for this hardware revision.
-
-The resulting package is specific to the kernel it was built against.
-You must rebuild this package whenever you upgrade your kernel.
-
-BUILDING
---------
-To build for the currently running kernel:
-
- ./r8125.SlackBuild
-
-To build for a different kernel (e.g. one you have just installed but
-not yet booted):
-
- KERNEL=6.1.0 ./r8125.SlackBuild
-
-The KERNEL variable must match the directory name under /lib/modules/
-and the kernel build tree must exist at /lib/modules/$KERNEL/build.
-
-LOADING THE MODULE
-------------------
-After installing the package, load the driver without rebooting:
-
- modprobe r8125
-
-To verify it loaded:
-
- lsmod | grep r8125
-
-CONFLICT WITH r8169
--------------------
-The in-tree r8169 driver may also bind to RTL8125 hardware. This package
-installs a blacklist file to prevent r8169 from loading:
-
- /etc/modprobe.d/r8169_blacklist.conf
-
-If the file already exists and has been modified, the new version will
-be installed as r8169_blacklist.conf.new for you to review and merge.
-
-If r8169 is currently loaded, unload it before loading r8125:
-
- modprobe -r r8169
- modprobe r8125
-
-NVCHECKER
----------
-An nvchecker configuration file is installed alongside this README at:
-
- /usr/doc/r8125-VERSION/r8125.nvchecker
-
-nvchecker (https://github.com/lilydjwg/nvchecker) is a tool for checking
-new versions of software. Copy or include this file in your nvchecker
-configuration to be notified when Realtek publishes a new r8125 release.
