instant-messengers: delist Riot (#1047)

Browse Source 
We previously added a warning on privacy concerns in #1024 after
Prism-break had delisted Riot and *Notes on privacy and data collection
of Matrix.org* was released revealing concerns even with self-hosted
homeservers.

Today Libre Monde has released another part on privacy investigation on
Matrix.org [1] revealing that they aren't GDPR compliant nor privacy
friendly and behave shadily such as by announcing removal of data as a
result of GDPR request. [2]

Closes #1048, closes #1050.
