.gitattribute: remove old entries and force lf mode for python files

[perillo]

In gitattributes there are entries that set attributes for (probably) old files: .bat, .h and .cpp.

Is it ok to remove them?

Should I add an entry *.py text eol=lf for python files?

I think so.

Why you wrote these in Python and not Zig or Bash?

I wrote a draft of check-exercises in Zig, but the Python version is simply shorter and easier to read. Also note that it does not have external dependencies. Moreover, the tools are for collaborators only, and Python should be available on all systems.

The only possible issue is that it may not be compatible with old Python versions on some Linux distribution.

I try to reprogramming it in Zig. 😉
