Daniel Gustafsson 46d7214ca9 tls: Remove EXAMPLEs from deprecated options
CURLOPT_EGDSOCKET and CURLOPT_RANDOM_FILE are both completely dead
so remove their example sections since the code there is useless.
There is still a way to inject a random file for OpenSSL older than
1.1.0 but it's not what the example showed (and it's not even done
with this option) so we refrain from documenting it here.

Closes: #13540
