netdev-dpdk: Remove Rx checksum reconfigure.

Rx checksum offload is enabled by default on DPDK physical NICs
where available, with reconfiguration through
options:rx-checksum-offload. However, changing rx-checksum-offload
did not result in a reconfiguration of the NIC and wrong status is
reported for it.

As there seems to be diminishing reasons why a user would want
to disable Rx checksum offload, just remove the broken reconfiguration
option.

Fixes: 1a2bb11817a4 ("netdev-dpdk: Enable Rx checksum offloading feature on DPDK physical ports.")
