Remove auth from Bitlbee
I'm having trouble getting PAM auth to work, so I'm temporarily disabling it.

TIL that I can use the following to verify that PAM is properly setup for a
program (e.g. `bitlbee`).

```
pamtester -v bitlbee $(whoami) authenticate
```

...but despite this succeeding, I still cannot use the `identify` command in
`bitlbee` to successfully authenticate. It just tells me "Incorrect password"
even though I'm providing it the same password that I type when doing the
`pamtester` command from above.

Computers!
