net: Kill unuseful net/TUNABLE doc in kernel source

File net/TUNABLE has never be updated since git age.

For some tunable parameters which user can control with proc file-system,
They are all in ip-sysctl.txt doc.

For tunable parameters that only at compile time, no meaning to note them.

The following parameters should be tunable at compile time. Some of them
exist as sysctls too.
This is far from complete
