Actually, I just went through the list of all the services Shorten URLs supports, and half of them have been shut down:
adjix
hex.io
idek.net
lin.cr
piurl
retwt.me
short.ie
surl.me
th8.us
tr.im
urlb.at
urlCover
urlShort
Additionally, the cli.gs site is up but the API is currently not responding, and fwd4.me now requires an API key (where before it was optional).
I don't think we need an upgrade function here even though we could leave users with invalid settings because since these services already don't work, removing them doesn't make them work any worse. So it should just be a matter of removing the service definitions in shorten_shorten_service() (and in the case of Adjix, the form and variable for its API keys). Committed this change to dev (6.x, 7.x).
