acinclude.m4: Remove support for building the OVS kernel module.
Since the openvswitch project inception it has had support for building
a Linux kernel module to support the OVS kernel datapath. Since Linux
kernel release 5.8 support for newer kernels has been deprecated. Now
is the time to fully discontinue support for building the openvswitch
kernel driver. Since Linux 5.9 the Linux built-in openvswitch kernel
driver supports all necessary features and functions of the kernel
datapath and the need to support this additional "out of tree" kernel
module is gone.
Remove the --with-linux configuration support from the acinclude.m4
configuration and warn user it is not supported any longer.
