Remove the "import/export" section of the Rails cheat sheet

Ben King requested to merge benjaminking-remove-import-export-cheatsheet into master

What does this MR do and why?

This MR is part of a wider epic and issue to move content away from the "cheat sheet", to sections most applicable to the relevant content.

The cheat sheet contains three "sections" for Import/Export:

Import a project (Removed)

The commands mention the use of GitLab 11.6, and is not supported in more recent versions of GitLab. Specifically: .import_error and .import_finish are no longer in use. Additionally, this code snippet should be used to "mark an import as failed", so the original title was misleading and did not provide relevant context.

Rename a repository (Removed)

This section mentions a specific situation requiring renaming an imported situation. As the Support Team had to get involved and performed these actions, I don't believe this should be left in the new location as a troubleshooting option.

Export a project (Updated)

This has been updated/merged with the section at the destination titled Manually execute export steps which accomplishes the same results. Further clarity is provided on why/how this should be used, and where the exported file will be once uploaded.
