net: no longer reset transport_header in __netif_receive_skb_core()

In commit 66e4c8d ("net: warn if transport header was not set")
I added a debug check in skb_transport_header() to detect
if a caller expects the transport_header to be set to a meaningful
value by a prior code path.

Unfortunately, __netif_receive_skb_core() resets the transport header
to the same value than the network header, defeating this check
in receive paths.

Pretending the transport and network headers are the same
is usually wrong.

This patch removes this reset for CONFIG_DEBUG_NET=y builds
to let fuzzers and CI find bugs.
