 After discussing a similar issue in #32435, we noticed that we have some
 lines in rbm.conf that explicitly disable namecoin and snowflake but are
 not really needed.

 When I want to see if a feature is enabled/disable I usually look at all
 the lines setting the option, so I find it better to have less lines to
 look at. So I think it's better if we remove the definitions that are not
 needed.

 I think an exception to that rule would be if we wanted to add a comment
 explaining why we a feature is disabled (however it seems we don't have
 this case yet).

 An other exception is the line setting `var/multi_lingual` to 0. In this
 case, we don't set it anywhere else, so I think it's useful to keep it to
 remind us that the option exists and can be changed.

 So if everybody agrees with that rule, I think we should remove the
 `snowflake: 0` and `namecoin: 0` lines from rbm.conf.
