I don't think it is useful to have Config.in.legacy entries for
sub-options of the alljoyn-base package. Indeed, if the package was
selected in an existing configuration, the main package option will
have disappeared, and will trigger the Config.in.legacy mechanism.
Therefore, we don't really care about the sub-options IMO.

Other than that, I'm fine with dropping those packages, upstream is
indeed long dead.

Best regards,

Thomas
