iwlwifi: remove deprecated broadcast filtering feature

This feature has been deprecated and should not be used anymore.  With
newer firmwares, namely *-67.ucode and above, trying to use it causes an
assertion failure in the FW, similar to this:

[Tue Jan 11 20:05:24 2022] iwlwifi 0000:04:00.0: 0x00001062 | ADVANCED_SYSASSERT

In order to prevent this feature from being used, remove it entirely
and get rid of the Kconfig option that
enables it (IWLWIFI_BCAST_FILTERING).

Fixes: cbaa6aee ("iwlwifi: bump FW API to 67 for AX devices")
