net: ax25: remove plumbing for never-implemented DAMA Master support

The AX25_DAMA_MASTER option has been unimplemented and marked broken
ever since it was introduced in 2007 in commit 954b2e7f4c ("[NET]
AX.25 Kconfig and docs updates and fixes"). At this point, it is very
unlikely it will be implemented. Remove it.

DAMA is a mechanism to prevent collisions when doing AX.25
networking. A DAMA server (called "master") accepts incoming traffic
from clients (called "slaves") and redistributes it to other slaves.
If you say Y here, your Linux box will act as a DAMA master; this is
transparent in that you don't have to do any special DAMA
configuration. Linux cannot yet act as a DAMA server. This option
only compiles DAMA slave support into the kernel. It still needs to
be explicitly enabled, so if unsure, say Y.
