[Bug 1874192] [NEW] Remove avahi .local notification support (no longer needed)

[Trent Lloyd]

Public bug reported:

As of nss-mdns 0.14 (which is now shipping in Focal 20.04) Avahi no
longer requires to be stopped when a unicast .local domain is present,
nss-mdns now has logic to make this work correctly when Avahi is running
for both multicast and unicast.

We dropped the script that performs this check in Avahi, the relevant
logic in update-notifier to notify this information should also be
removed, although it should no longer function it's just dead code now.

e.g. /usr/lib/systemd/user/unicast-local-avahi.path, etc.

** Affects: update-notifier (Ubuntu)
