Remove option config.services.tt-rss.checkForUpdates (forced to false)

Force this option to false. Leaving this as true (currently the default)
is dangerous. If the TT-RSS installation upgrades itself to a newer
version requiring a schema update, the installation will break the next
time the TT-RSS systemd service is restarted.

Ideally, the installation itself should be immutable (see
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/55300).

services.tt-rss.root leads to a database schema upgrade that is not
supported by the code active in the Nix store.
