Remove StopPolling API - #44

Conversation
HTMX 4 no longer treats HTTP 286 as a special signal to stop polling. Keeping StopPolling would therefore suggest that it works across supported HTMX versions, while it has no effect with HTMX 4. Remove the misleading convenience API and document the supported, version-independent way to stop polling: replace the polling element with a terminal response that omits its polling attributes. For applications that deliberately target HTMX 1.9/2.x, HTTP 286 can still be set manually.
