Research direction

Start by inspecting the libc-test/semver/*.txt files and the repository's release-plz configuration. Check how cargo-semver-checks is currently run and whether it covers Linux only, then determine the required Tier 1 and possibly Tier 2 platforms. Done means the obsolete text files are removed and semver checks run across the agreed platforms.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

These text files are often out of date and not always clear about how they get used. We should delete these all and just use cargo-semver-checks.

I believe release-plz runs this but only on Linux, we need to check all Tier 1 and (maybe?) Tier 2 platforms.
