[PATCH nf] netfilter: disable br_netfilter in user namespaces

br_netfilter has way too many bugs, schedule for removal and disable
the feature in user namespaces.

In particular, we get more and more gadgets to have bridge ports escape
rcu_read_lock() protection, then underlying device gets reconfigured
(macvlan or something else), then reinject into network stack causes
crash because net_device is assumed to still have bridge rx data
associated with it.

br_netfilter is an ancient kludge that emulates ip stack from within the
bridge and then calls into ipv4/ipv6 netfilter hooks to have bridged
frames processed via iptables/ip6tables by setting the 'call-iptables'
sysctls to 1. It is NOT related to ebtables or nftables 'bridge' family
at all.

Note that in addition to call-iptables, sysctls, the bridge itself exposes
call-iptables per port via netlink and sysfs ('BROPT_NF_CALL_IPTABLES')
toggles.

Those are still available, the brnet structure is scoped to br_netfilter;
exposing it bridge-wide is a big no-no.

This relies on brnf_device_event() no longer registering the base
br_netfilter hooks, so while BROPT_NF_CALL_IPTABLES can be set, it
has no effect because the hooks that evaluate this feature bit
are never registered.

brnf_init_net can no longer depend on CONFIG_SYSCTL, else such builds
never disable support in user namespaces.
