YAML 2.0: drop Folded Block Scalars

Hi all,
I totally support removing Folded Block Scalars from the language.

- folded scalars break WYSIWYG
- If we remove folded scalars the the term "literal block scalar" is also
removed. We will have only "block scalar"
- trying to respect leading/trailing spaces brings only confusion. If the
plain scalar is trimmed, the block scalar should be also trimmed.
- remove Block Chomping Indicator. No one understands it (me included). I
implemented it in SnakeYAML, but I understand it only during the
implementation. Next day I have no clue what it means and how it works.
- I would like to remove the whole Block Scalar Header. (especially if
there is no need to distinguish folded and literal). The only challenge
here is Block Indentation Indicator. I do not have a solution. We need to
discuss it.

Cheers,
Andrey
