This skin was removed in 2.6.0, because only the kernel-side API was
emulated, we had no incentive for maintaining that code due to the lack
of users sending feedback, and nobody went for contributing LXRT
emulation after all these years. People seem to prefer porting to the
native Xenomai API instead. So I have decided to remove it entirely, to
stop bit roting.
