Remove hostapd dump_file functionality

This debugging mechanism has now been deprecated by the control
interface commands that can be used to fetch same internal information
from hostapd in a more convenient way. Leave the empty USR1 signal
handler and configuration file parameter for backwards compatibility.
They can be removed in future versions of hostapd.
