meta: Cleaning up old branches

[nschonni]

Here are some that I noticed looking at https://github.com/w3c/aria-practices/branches/all

• the ones starting with "greenkeeper" can be removed now that the Dependabot move happened
• branches that indicate they are for merged and/or closed PRs
• branches that have "0" commits ahead of master. The

[nschonni]

@mcking65 not sure if you're the best one to tackle this or if @jesdaigle / @zcorpan could do it (if you agree with the cleanup)

[zcorpan]

I haven't removed branches that have no PRs or that are 0 commits ahead of main. We could probably delete more here, but I don't know if any given branch is one that should be preserved for some reason.

I would suggest ticking the checkbox "Automatically delete head branches" in GitHub settings for this repo, so that branches are removed automatically after PRs are merged.

[zcorpan]

To remove branches locally in your clone that have been removed upstream, run:

git fetch --prune

[zcorpan]

@michael-n-cooper can you do this, please?:

There are still a few pages of stale branches, without PRs or with open PRs, which I haven't removed. Again, not sure how to evaluate what to remove from these.

I'll say that this issue is fixed now.
