These compile tests are run on the host machine which may have or may
not have libpcap installed, so we are relying on the host machine to
determine if we have to stop the build process due to a missing pcap
library. Given that Kismet already depends on libpcap we can be sure
that library will be installed in our target. So, for these two reasons
we can remove these compile tests from the configure script.

Fixes:
