Remove gitter from the handbook pages
Why is this change being made?
Legal has approved Discord recently. It does not make sense for us to maintain multiple platforms such as Gitter & Discord. On top of that we're seeing a big growth in the Discord platform and was our integration broken between Slack & Gitter.
Partly resolves https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/quality/contributor-success/team-task/-/issues/178
Note: This does not complete the transition, but merely removes any references in our handbook to Gitter. I'll make the same MR for the docs site.
