af_packet: Remove FindKernelHeaders, not needed

Browse source 
There's been some wondering why kernel headers are required to compile
this plugin as it's not providing a kernel module or otherwise provides
functionality related to kernel APIs. AF_PACKET sockets are provided
through user-space APIs.

There may have been historical reasons, but let's move forward and
remove the dependency.

Fixes #29 #24

### Manual Install ### Manual Install
The following will compile and install the AF_Packet plugin alongside Zeek, assuming it can find the kernel headers in a standard location:
The following will compile and install the AF_Packet plugin alongside Zeek::
# ./configure && make && make install # ./configure && make && make install
If the headers are installed somewhere non-standard, add `--with-kernel=<kernel-header-directory>` to the `configure` command. Furthermore, `--with-latest-kernel` will use the latest headers available instead of looking for the headers matching the running kernel's version.
