SUNRPC: Simplify svc_unregister()



Our initial implementation of svc_unregister() assumed that PMAP_UNSET
cleared all rpcbind registrations for a [program, version] tuple.
However, we now have evidence that PMAP_UNSET clears only "inet"
entries, and not "inet6" entries, in the rpcbind database.

For backwards compatibility with the legacy portmapper, the
svc_unregister() function also must work if user space doesn't support
rpcbind version 4 at all.

Thus we'll send an rpcbind v4 UNSET, and if that fails, we'll send a
PMAP_UNSET.

This simplifies the code in svc_unregister() and provides better
backwards compatibility with legacy user space that does not support
rpcbind version 4.  We can get rid of the conditional compilation in
here as well.
