Bug#1121912: freeimage: dead upstream, open security issues

To ensure everyone is on the same page:
- ogre-1.12 1.12.10+dfsg2-8 no longer build-depends on libfreeimage-dev
- ogre-14 is making its way through NEW, without a build-dep on libfreeimage-dev

So OGRE is no longer reliant on FreeImage,
be it the unmaintained original or the active fork.

With this e-mail I am proposing a much shorter CC list that should focus
on people who still need a FreeImage replacement in the archive.
(you can omit me too, my interest about FreeImage was limited to OGRE)
