core177: Do not ship location database extracted in ipset format
Commit Message
Since the update is not built on the day when people install it, we will
ship an outdated database. For updates, where the firewall is being
reloaded or rebooted, we will have an old database in place until the
next database update job runs.
Secondly, the data is 33 MiB in size, which is useless data shipped as
every system will already have a database that is very likely to be more
recent.
In this update, we are not shipping the location database again, but I
wanted to add this change so it does not get lost next time.
