MAC/do: Configuration: Fix default values: Remove jail creation method
mac_do_jail_create() would create a default configuration on the
just-created jail, erroneously causing mac_do_jail_set() to then
retrieve it and use it as a model when determining the default values
for not-specified parameters, instead of using the configuration
applicable to the parent jail.
Setting a default configuration in mac_do_jail_create() had been done as
a kind of defensive measure to prevent a created jail not to have
a configuration (effectively making it inherit from an ancestor jail,
which is a security hazard except if explicitly requested). However,
this measure was never really effective (osd_jail_call(PR_METHOD_CREATE)
in kern_jail_set() calls the PR_PETHOD_CREATE methods in an unspecified
order, and stops at the first error), so we are forced to rely in any
case on the fact that an error in a PR_METHOD_CREATE or PR_METHOD_SET
method leads to stopping the jail creation process (which is the case
today; see kern_jail_set()).
