Remove 'fw' firewall detection methods

 ### Breaking changes
 
   * ddclient now requires curl.
+  * ddclient no longer has built-in support for IP detection via routers and
+    firewalls.
   * ddclient no longer ships any example files for init systems that use `/etc/init.d`.
     This was done because those files where effectively unmaintained, untested by the developers and only updated by downstream distros.
     If you where relying on those files, please copy them into your packaging.

   2. Do you need to specify a proxy?
      If so, just add a ``proxy=your.isp.proxy`` to the ddclient.conf file.
 
-  3. Define the IP address of your router with ``fw=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx`` in
-     ``/etc/ddclient/ddclient.conf`` and then try ``$ ddclient -daemon=0 -query`` to see if the router status web page can be understood.
-
-  4. Need support for another router/firewall?
-     Define the router status page yourself with: ``fw=url-to-your-router``'s-status-page ``fw-skip=any-string-preceding-your-IP-address``
-
-     ddclient does something like this to provide builtin support for
-     common routers.
-     For example, the Linksys routers could have been added with:
-
-    fw=192.168.1.1/Status.htm
-    fw-skip=WAN.*?IP Address
-
-OR
-     Send me the output from:
-      ``$ ddclient -geturl {fw-ip-status-url} [-login login [-password password]]``
-     and I'll add it to the next release!
-
-ie. for my fw/router I used: ``$ ddclient -geturl 192.168.1.254/status.htm``
-
-  5. Some broadband routers require the use of a password when ddclient
-     accesses its status page to determine the router's WAN IP address.
-     If this is the case for your router, add
-
-    fw-login=your-router-login
-    fw-password=your-router-password
-
-to the beginning of your ddclient.conf file.
-Note that some routers use either 'root' or 'admin' as their login
-while some others accept anything.

 ## USING DDCLIENT WITH `ppp`
 
 If you are using a ppp connection, you can easily update your DynDNS
