[NETFILTER] nfnetlink: unconditionally require CAP_NET_ADMIN
This patch unconditionally requires CAP_NET_ADMIN for all nfnetlink
messages. It also removes the per-message cap_required field, since all
existing subsystems use CAP_NET_ADMIN for all their messages anyway.
Patrick McHardy owes me a beer if we ever need to re-introduce this.
