LIRC_MODE2 does not really need net_admin capability, but only sys_admin.
Extract a new helper for it, it will be also used for the HID bpf implementation.

For BPF_PROG_TYPE_LIRC_MODE2, I don't think this change will break userspace. This is called from ir-keytable(1) which is called from udev. It should have all the necessary permissions.
In addition, the vast majority IR decoders are non-bpf. bpf ir decoders have very few users at the moment.
