 Description   

Sometime in the 2.5.2/2.5.3 timeframe we stopped supporting the "C++ client driver tarball" mechanism for building the driver.

However, we still have up on the downloads site links for various 2.5.x tarballs, and also something called mongo-cxx-driver-nightly, which hasn't been updated in weeks.

Since we no longer support this mechanism for the driver, we should remove the packages. They aren't useful, and are at best confusing.

On reflection, since we did actually ship the driver for 2.5.0, 2.5.1, and 2.5.2, we should leave those up. Only cxx-driver/mongodb-linux-x86_64-latest.tgz should be removed, since it will never be updated.
