[MonoDevelop] Removed files in POTFILES.in

[Barış ÇİÇEK]

I knew that it's too late for this release. But translating SVN is mostly
not the most efficient way. SVN is live, and you might end up doing
translation in vain most of times. 

Of course almost complete translation is better than nothing. But it still
won't look professional, if you would have some menu items for example not
translated even though you could able to translate it as well. 

For that reason, best practice should be to have String Freeze period as
in GNOME translation, a week before a release. So that translators can
update their translation, take a last look for the release. 

It's not possible to follow SVN especially for translators every time and
make a revision on the translation. Having a string freeze period, and
maybe a different mailing list for translators (at ximian mailing lists)
would increase the quality of translation considerably.
