A quick paru -Ps reveals our server has quite a lot of packages installed!

paru v1.9.2 - libalpm v13.0.1
===========================================
Total installed packages: 1881
Aur packages: 89
Repo packages: 1790
Explicitly installed packages: 184
Total Size occupied by packages: 33.99GiB
===========================================
Ten biggest packages:
0ad-data: 3.07GiB
flightgear-data: 2.60GiB
rocm-llvm: 1.76GiB
peertube: 1.47GiB
xonotic-data: 888.67MiB
linux-firmware: 731.19MiB
supertuxkart: 703.15MiB
gap: 648.76MiB
rocfft: 593.26MiB
collabora-online-server-nodocker: 584.57MiB
===========================================
:: packages not in the AUR: krita-plugin-gmic  multimc5-offline
:: marked out of date: flightgear  flightgear-data  osu-lazer  python-matrix-synapse-ldap3  python-nbdime
:: orphans: python-certipy

I'm mainly concerned about having 89 AUR packages installed since that's going to be a huge pain to maintain. Let's clean this up and uninstall stuff that we don't need, especially since users can install additional packages with Toolbox.

Here's a shortlist of potential packages to remove: (most are games)

airshipper
calibre
cockpit-pcp
dwarffortress
element-desktop
godot
jellyfin-media-player
ktorrent
nasm
openttd, openttd-opengfx, openttd-opensfx
packagekit
speedcrunch
stone-soup
syncthing
terasology
twine
vi (vim is better 😃)
