purged null from Hy

[gilch]

This pull only removes the redundant null from Hy. It is not sufficient to close #240, but it is a step in the right direction.

Rationale: We already have None, and null was barely ever used anyway. If this breaks something, a simple (def null None) will suffice to patch it.

The fate of the other redundant keywords remains open.
