Drop support for 'thin' web server

Matthias Käppler requested to merge drop-thin-support into master

This increases the complexity due to maintaining another entry point for running a rails server, and we're not using it anywhere in GitLab either.

I would also not encourage people to run other web servers than those we officially support.

This got in the way when working on ActionCable support. Since the entry points for these containers are virtually identical (just the server config changes slightly), we can probably streamline web.sh and cable.sh into a single script later on, but since thin maintains its own pidfile, this got complicated when running more than 1 thin (since they would write to the same location).
