gh-37054: `CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md`: Do not send people to sage-flame <!-- ^^^^^ Please provide a concise, informative and self-explanatory title. Don't put issue numbers in there, do this in the PR body below. For example, instead of "Fixes #1234" use "Introduce new method to calculate 1+1" --> <!-- Describe your changes here in detail --> Facts: - The only place where sage-flame is mentioned is at the bottom of the Code of Conduct, moved from the Sage wiki to the repository in Apr 2022 in #33565 (this PR has pointers to the discussions that established the Code in 2014, including the role of sage-flame) - Moving discussions to sage-flame is the *only* sanction that is mentioned in the Code of Conduct. - The sage-flame list/group has not seen a use after 2019. Here we remove the mention of sage-flame from the Code of Conduct; not only because it has fallen out of actual use, but also because it is harmful: - It is the only sanction mentioned in CoC, and it paints the picture of symmetric behavior: two or more participants engage in a "heated discussion". - Hence it ignores the asymmetric nature of abuse: There is an abuser, and there is a target of the abuse. - Sending both to sage-flame is inappropriate and harmful, as it effectively downplays and legitimizes the conduct of the abuser.

For example "Fixes #12345". --> <!-- If your change requires a documentation PR, please link it appropriately. --> ### 📝 Checklist <!-- Put an `x` in all the boxes that apply. --> <!-- If your change requires a documentation PR, please link it appropriately --> <!-- If you're unsure about any of these, don't hesitate to ask.
