networkd: drop CAP_SYS_MODULE
Rely on modules being built-in or autoloaded on-demand.
As networkd is a network facing service, we want to limits its capabilities,
as much as possible. Also, we may not have CAP_SYS_MODULE in a container,
and we want networkd to work the same there.
Module autoloading does not always work, but should be fixed by the kernel
patch f98f89a0104454f35a: 'net: tunnels - enable module autoloading', which
is currently in net-next and which people may consider backporting if they
want tunneling support without compiling in the modules.
Early adopters may also use a module-load.d snippet and order
systemd-modules-load.service before networkd to force the module
loading of tunneling modules.
This sholud fix the various build issues people have reported.
