Description

We prevented discovering a host with existing MAC managed address in #16890 because Foreman was supposed to prevent creation of NICs with same MAC addresses. It turns out this validation does not work (#23173) and the discovery prevention patch created an unnecessary regression to existing users.

In this patch, we will revert back the old behavior, the new preventing will be only available as discovery opt-in setting.
