This commit simplifies file format identification. It removes all file
identification related models and data entries from the fpr application.
Instead, it defaults to pygfried, a Python package that makes siegfried
available as a CPython extension.
pygfried only reports PRONOM identifiers for the time being but the plan
is to support additional registries.
What's left is
fpr.fp{rule,tool,command}
, that we could eventually moveout of the database into an interoperable format easier to manage externally.
Connects to #55.
