Ben Hutchings 12fe9efbc6 stable-update: Rewrite stable-update.sh in Python
This fixes some of the problems dch was causing:
- Putting the stable log in the wrong place
- Updating the date unnecessarily

Change stable-update.sh to be a wrapper for stable-update.

Delete ckt-stable-update.sh; if we need it again in future, it can be
implemented more cleanly as part of the new script.
