autotest: remove beacon_footer functionality

In kernel v3.8, a local patch (https://crrev.com/c/232362)
added the ability to add an arbitrary footer to wifi beacon
frames. This change was never upstreamed and is no longer
supported by any more recent kernel versions. This change
removes the autotest functionality that relied on this
kernel capability. Further, the test 'network_WiFi_Simple
Connect.wifi_checkTruncatedBeacon' uses this beacon_footer
logic, so remove it as well in order to avoid advertising
the ability to test for something we can't actually test
for.

This test/functionality may be reproduced in some fashion
in the future.

BUG=None
TEST=Run other wifi tests to make sure nothing else is broken.
Attempting to run 'network_WiFi_SimpleConnect.wifi_checkTruncatedBeacon'
results in failure.
