Subject: [PATCH] Doc: Remove outdated reading list
These books were published between 1995 and 1997, and are very dated.
Newcomers should be directed to learn about C++11's std::thread instead
of the platform-specific APIs.
We don't want to continue maintaining this list, as it's very easy for
users to find their own introductory reading material.
