[TYPO3-core] RFC: #11710: Remove local loopback bypass in Install Tool Login

Hi Stefan,

Is it so difficult to press the button in the backend for creating the
ENABLE_INSTALL_TOOL file?

Before we had this button, I agree that it was not very convenient to
enter the Install Tool. However, now that it's available, I see no
reason to add one more config variable for doing almost the same...
