Upstream has rejected this flag which would have let FEX close the gap in functionality between binfmt_misc interpreters and PT_INTERP interpreters for how /proc/exe is handled. Since we are unable to change their opinions, just remove the code from FEX since it's never going to happen.

Removes a little bit of confusing behaviour in execveat and filemanagement handling. Leaving us with only the regular confusing behaviour of trying to track accesses to /proc/exe instead.
