netfilter: tproxy: remove nf_tproxy_core, keep tw sk assigned to skb
The module was "permanent", due to the special tproxy skb->destructor.
Nowadays we have tcp early demux and its sock_edemux destructor in
networking core which can be used instead.
Thanks to early demux changes the input path now also handles
"skb->sk is tw socket" correctly, so this no longer needs the special
handling introduced with commit d503b30bd648b3cb4e5f50b65d27e389960cc6d9
(netfilter: tproxy: do not assign timewait sockets to skb->sk).
Thus:
- move assign_sock function to where its needed
- don't prevent timewait sockets from being assigned to the skb
- remove nf_tproxy_core.
