remove cloud encryption card

"Encryption with 7zip" is dangerously misleading and we have alternative cards
that describe reasonable other ways to get the files encrypted and uploaded
(cryptomator, or the exchange channel cards that actually describe valid PGP
workflows). I think it's OK to just remove this. Comments welcome.

| Administrative rights to install software | |
| Web browser (Firefox, Edge or Chrome) | |
