UFC has now been merged into FFC. Some work remains to do some cleanup
after the merge (mostly merging of the documentation), but everything
should work now. This means that FEniCS users no longer need to
download and install UFC separately.

Some issues:

- Can we mark the UFC repository as discontinued on Bitbucket?
  Should it be removed?

- How do we handle installation in Dorsal? If we just remove the UFC
  package, then it will work for installation from the master branch
  but will fail for download of the latest stable version.

We are now down to 5 packages (DOLFIN, FFC, UFL, FIAT, Instant). An
obvious candidate for merging is FIAT, which could easily be merged
into FFC, both because it is Python and it is not changing rapidly.

On a side note, we could also think about renaming that repository
since it will contain different packages. The name does not need to
be FFC, perhaps just "FEniCS"?
