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.")
