selftests/bpf: Fix two net related test failures with 64K page size

When running BPF selftests on arm64 with a 64K page size, I encountered
the following two test failures:
  sockmap_basic/sockmap skb_verdict change tail:FAIL
  tc_change_tail:FAIL

With further debugging, I identified the root cause in the following
kernel code within __bpf_skb_change_tail():

    u32 max_len = BPF_SKB_MAX_LEN;
    u32 min_len = __bpf_skb_min_len(skb);
    int ret;

    if (unlikely(flags || new_len > max_len || new_len < min_len))
        return -EINVAL;

With a 4K page size, new_len = 65535 and max_len = 16064, the function
returns -EINVAL. However, With a 64K page size, max_len increases to
261824, allowing execution to proceed further in the function. This is
because BPF_SKB_MAX_LEN scales with the page size and larger page sizes
result in higher max_len values.

Updating the new_len parameter in both tests based on actual kernel
page size resolved both failures.
