    GCE: Enable vtnet(4) Multiqueue.
    
    Removes hw.vtnet.mq_disable=1.
    
    This workaround was originally introduced nearly a decade ago to
    address stability issues on KVM that have long since been resolved
    in both the FreeBSD driver and the GCE hypervisor. Removing this
    allows network interrupts to scale across multiple vCPUs.
    
    Tested on n2-highcpu-16 VM with 15.0-RELEASE and confirmed multiple
    queue pairs active and interrupts handling across cores.
    
    PR:             kern/292081
    
    (cherry picked from commit f604d84618ad478fa46ec374480cbcbc1d93bf07)
