bpf iter uses seq_file, so the initial bpf_iter_tcp reuses most
of the pieces from /proc/net/tcp.

This set refactored a few things such that the bpf_iter_tcp only
shares the legacy tcp_seek_last_pos(), so the dependency on
/proc/net/tcp should be less going forward.

A similar modification could also be done to bpf_iter_udp in the future.

Thanks for the review!
