ds2482: Discard obsolete detect method
There is no point in implementing a detect callback for the DS2482, as
this device can't be detected. It was there solely to handle "force"
module parameters to instantiate devices, but now we have a better sysfs
interface that can do the same.
So we can get rid of the ugly module parameters and the detect callback.
This shrinks the binary module size by 21%.
