trans/mtab: remove the loop detection logic

Previously the mtab detector tried to detect whether it talks to
itself by comparing the control port of the translator it currently
visits with its own. This was done to prevent deadlocks. However, this
did not detect non-trivial loops, i.e. two mtab translators would
still dead-lock each other.

Now that it is safe to actually file_name_lookup the root node of a
mtab translator without triggering the generation of content, this
logic can just be omitted.

* trans/mtab.c (mtab_populate): Remove the loop detection logic.
