netfilter: remove nf_conntrack_helper sysctl and modparam toggles
__nf_ct_try_assign_helper() remains in place but it now requires a
template to configure the helper.
A toggle to disable automatic helper assignment was added by:
a9006892643a ("netfilter: nf_ct_helper: allow to disable automatic helper assignment")
in 2012 to address the issues described in "Secure use of iptables and
connection tracking helpers". Automatic conntrack helper assignment was
disabled by:
3bb398d925ec ("netfilter: nf_ct_helper: disable automatic helper assignment")
back in 2016.
This patch removes the sysctl and modparam toggles, users now have to
rely on explicit conntrack helper configuration via ruleset.
Update tools/testing/selftests/netfilter/nft_conntrack_helper.sh to
check that auto-assignment does not happen anymore.
