BUG/MEDIUM: haterm: Properly initialize the splicing support for haterm

First, we must not emit any warning if splicing is not configured and the
global maxpipes value is 0. Then we must not remove GTUNE_USE_SPLICE flag
when we fail to allocate the haterm master pipe. Instead, we test it when we
negociate with the opposite side, to properly exclude the splicing if it is
not usable.

No backport needed.
