Removed AS components

This class of components represents are removed from Content Studio version 5 and there are no replacements for them. The reason for this either that they uses an old technique that no longer is supported in the product (ex. the Content Studio Personalization Server) or or that they cannot meet the requirements of a modern development platform.
