index: remove mention of kiss from the main page
As much as I still love kiss as a distro and a community, mentioning
kiss always puts people under the wrong assumption that Carbs is based
on KISS. To be fair it was never based on KISS, it was a fork that had
worked pretty similarly. While the two distributions are still quite
similar to each other, they are not compatible as of last year. I
haven't even checked a KISS repository for over 2 years, and I think the
notion that Carbs is based on KISS sometimes moves people away from
trying out Carbs, so I decided to remove the mention from the home page.
