Iago López Galeiras 9f3e7d3ddc vendor: bump tcptracer-bpf
This includes:

* an eBPF object built with a newer kernel (4.14)
* an increased threshold for guessing offsets, which is necessary for
the eBPF tracer to work on Google's Container-Optimized OS (used by
GKE)

Iago López Galeiras 7541ad9c9c vendor: bump tcptracer-bpf
We found out we were losing kretprobes sometimes because maxactive was set too
low[1]. This problem was more apparent in our GCE test environment because
the kernel was configured with `CONFIG_PREEMPT` not set and we're running
single-core VMs (see https://github.com/weaveworks/tcptracer-bpf/issues/24 for
more details).

Unfortunately, we can't set the maxactive explicitly from userspace. Alban
submitted a kernel patch to allow this[2].

This bumps tcptracer-bpf to include a workaround[3] for this issue in the
guess-offsets phase.
