wwan: drop workaround to use GTE DNS servers for PPP

Drop a workaround added by commit a8ca7f537d ('ppp: work around PPP
bug that returns bogus nameservers'), in 2009.

Also drop the second workaround (`if (!num ...`), which was introduced
by commit 294a5e3153 ('modem: substitute known-good nameservers if PPP
doesn't return any (lp:434477)').

I hope this doesn't break something, but it really doesn't seem right in
2021.
