cfg80211: reg: remove support for built-in regdb
Parsing and building C structures from a regdb is no longer needed since the "firmware" file (regulatory.db) can be linked into the kernel image to achieve the same effect. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

- This option generates an internal data structure representing
- the wireless regulatory rules described in net/wireless/db.txt
- and includes code to query that database. This is an alternative
- to using CRDA for defining regulatory rules for the kernel.
-
- Using this option requires some parsing of the db.txt at build time,
- the parser will be upkept with the latest wireless-regdb updates but
- older wireless-regdb formats will be ignored. The parser may later
- be replaced to avoid issues with conflicts on versions of
- wireless-regdb.

- Most distributions have a CRDA package. So if unsure, say N.
