Cleaning: Remove unused substitution (binutils, @PROGRAM@)

Feature Description

Unlike other substitution, this substitution of @PROGRAM@ was done in binutils/Makefile and it was intended for binutils/cxxfilt.man. @PROGRAM@ in binutils/cxxfilt.man is removed in the commit 0285c67df190 ("Automate generate on man pages") in 2001 and @PROGRAM@ is ineffective since then.

Because PROGRAM substitution does nothing, removing this manual substitution should be completely safe.
