[issue13884] IDLE: Remove tear-off menu feature

[Mark Roseman]

Mark Roseman added the comment:

As indicated in prior comments, the tearoff menus are strictly a holdover from ancient Motif, and are no longer found in current user interfaces on any platform. Because of that, I would strongly support deleting them altogether, rather than making available a configuration option.

I've updated Roger's patch for current 3.x tip (and also extended it to remove the reference to tearoff menus from the help file).
