Feature #15894: Remove support for IA64

----------------------------------------
There are many `#ifdef __ia64` in Ruby code base. At one point it must have been supported.

But as an architecture, it's EOL (Jan 30th 2019). Last CPU was released in 2017.

I can't even buy 2nd hand CPU for testing.

So, I propose we remove support for IA64.

The main motivation for me personally is I want to simplify and improve fiber implementation. But it's impossible for me to test IA64 architecture.
