#4706: Remove unnecessary beeping

Pidgin makes my computer beep, using the PC Speaker. This is non-standard
behavior on Windows, making it the only program I use that beeps. It's
also highly annoying, since for some crazy reason I cant shut off my PC
speaker without unplugging it (and I might!).
It seems to beep most when holding backspace a little too long when
erasing something you've typed in to the chat input. I've only stared at
the code for 3 minutes, but my guess is that "on_edited" in spellchk.c is
the culprit. I'm betting that if gdk_beep was removed from there,
everything would be super great. Although, I see "beep()"s and
"gdk_beep()"s scattered everywhere. If was up to me, I'd wipe out every
one.
If I had my way, I'd remove all beeps from the code.
