boot: Do not attempt to update config.sub

While Apple ARM hardware was new we found that the autoconf scripts
included in some boot packages were too old. As a mitigation for this,
we introduced logic in the `boot` script to update the `config.sub`
with that from the GHC tree. However, this causes submodules which
have `config.sub` committted to appear to be dirty. This is a
considerable headache.

Now since `config.sub` with full platform support is more common we can
remove `boot`'s `config.sub` logic.

Fixes #19574.
