netifd: change RPS/XPS handling to all CPUs and disable by default

The current implementation is significantly lowering lantiq
performace [1][2] by using RPS with non-irq CPUs and XPS
with alternating CPUs.

The previous netifd implementation (by default but could be
configured) simply used all CPUs and this patch essentially
reverts to this behaviour.

The only document suggesting using non-interrupt CPUs is Red
Hat [3] where if the network interrupt rate is extremely high
excluding the CPU that handles network interrupts *may* also
improve performance.

The original packet steering patches [4] advise that optimal
settings for the CPU mask seems to depend on architectures
and cache hierarcy so one size does not fit all. It also
advises that the overhead in processing for a lightly loaded
server can cause performance degradation.

Ideally, proper IRQ balancing is a better option with
the irqbalance daemon or manually.

The kernel does not enable packet steering by default, so
also disable in OpenWRT by default. (Though mvebu with its
hardware scheduling issues [5] might want to enable packet
steering by default.)

Change undocumented "default_ps" parameter to clearer
"packet_steering" parameter. The old parameter was only ever
set in target/linux/mediatek/base-files/etc/uci-defaults/99-net-ps
and matched the default.
