Updating from a post-beta4 -dev release: Restore the root composer.json that ships with Drupal, then re-initialize Composer Manager.

Changes since 8.x-1.0-beta4:

• #2596035 by bojanz: Ignore modules already managed by Composer
• Fix typos, unused use statements and variables.
• #2444459 by bojanz: Leverage wikimedia/composer-merge-plugin
• #2595225 by bojanz: Add the managed extensions to the replace list
• Update module for the core/vendor -> vendor move
  - Stop the init code from accidentally overwriting existing scripts.
  - Remove the RootPackageBuilder, decrease the scope of root package regeneration.
  - [Status report] Remove listing of dependencies of dependencies and packages that are no longer required, the detection was too error prone.
  - [Status report] Remove listing of core dependencies, for brevity.
  - Remove rewriteAutoload, autoload.php now already points to the root vendor.
  - Remove 'composer drupal-install' and related APIs, vendor is already installed.
• #2554367 by dwkitchen: init.php fails to find Drupal root when module symlinked
