Remove oEmbed support for Vine

Description

oEmbed support for Vine.co should be removed for the following reasons:

  • Vine effectively shut down in December 2016, although it does still exist in a read-only state (ref).
  • The oEmbed endpoint no longer works and returns a 404 (ref).
  • Developer documentation for Vine has been removed (ref).

Support was introduced three short years ago in #30426.

  • Keywords needs-refresh removed

Added a new patch which removes all instances of Vine within Core except themes (will need a separate ticket for those). Thanks for flagging up the Press This code @netweb! I've done a search in the entire code base to make sure there's nothing else and seem to have got everything.

If anyone can do a test for me, please do!

Ah, don't worry about it. If you could do me a favour and check out some of my other waiting patches that'd be awesome. Thanks for committing though! :)
