SVN commit 1434556 by aacid:

Small improvement of the download page

It's still pretty bad but oh well.

Changes:
 * The cdrom page now redirects to https://community.kde.org/Distributions
 * Removed TOC was not adding much
 * Mention Plasma
 * Do not mention KDE SC
 * Remove link to cdrom.php and packagepolicy.php
 * Mention KDE Frameworks

Maybe this is enough until the big web redesign?
