The vanilla has_capability() function has been unused since 2018's
commit dcb569cf6ac9 ("Smack: ptrace capability use fixes")

Remove it.

Fixup a comment in security/commoncap.c that referenced it.

Now that Serge has the capabilities tree back up and running I'm
assuming he will grab this patch, if not just let me know Serge and I
can take it.
