all: remove everything related to non-seamless key renewal

Seamless key renewal has been the default in all clients since 1.90.
We retained the ability to disable it from the control plane as a
precaution, but we haven't seen any issues that require us to disable it.

We're now removing all the code for non-seamless key renewal, because we
don't expect to turn it on again, and indeed it's been untested in the
field for three releases so might contain latent bugs!
