This function was added in 66b8af3e124 (strbuf: add a case insensitive
starts_with(), 2018-03-09) for use with code added in
2f0c4a362c5 (utf8: teach same_encoding() alternative UTF encoding
names, 2018-04-15).
That use got rewritten in ed283588330 (convert: use skip_iprefix() in
validate_encoding(), 2019-11-08) to use skip_iprefix() instead.
It's arguably slightly odd to have a skip_prefix() and iskip_prefix(),
but not both variants when it comes to starts_with(), but this is easy
enough to resurrect should we ever need it, so let's drop it for now.
