*: do not send opaque data to zebra by default
Opaque data takes up a lot of memory when there are a lot of routes on
the box. Given that this is just a cosmetic info, I propose to disable
it by default to not shock people who start using FRR for the first time
or upgrades from an old version.
Fixes #10101.
