Cleanup CMMN from the modeler, or at least remove the option to enable it through flags.

What should we do?

We should decide on what we want to do with the leftover CMMN code in the codebase. It is still possible to enable the editor via the --no-disable-cmmn flag, however the editor is no longer functional in our UI, and we do not maintain it anymore.

Hence I would say we should at the very least remove the flag, or only expose it to developers (if that's a possibility) if through some miracle we want to resurrect CMMN

Why should we do it?

The CMMN editor is no longer maintained, and currently crashing. It also conflicts with the UI and hence should be at least hidden away.

The actual editor is broken you say? In this case we could consider removing the flag alltogether.

@nikku Yes I believe due to breaking changes to the properties panel relating to groups.
