flowworker: simplify pseudo packet use

Pseudo packets originating in the flow worker do not need to leave the
flow worker. Putting those in the ThreadVars::decode_pq will make them
be evaluated by the next steps in the pipeline, but those will all
ignore pseudo packets.

Instead, this patch returns them to the packet pool, while still honoring
the IPS verdict logic.
