libpcap: add upstream patch to fix runtime issue when TPACKET_V3 isn't supported
libpcap would fail to initialize on Linux when compiled against kernel headers with TPACKET_V3 support but running on kernel without: "can't get TPACKET_V3 header len on packet socket: Invalid argument" Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard <peter@korsgaard.com>

+Subject: [PATCH] fix TPACKET_V3 initialization (GH #329)
+
+libpcap would fail to initialize on Linux when compiled against kernel
+headers with TPACKET_V3 support but running on kernel without:
+
+"can't get TPACKET_V3 header len on packet socket: Invalid argument"
+
+Fix init_tpacket() to respect EINVAL because that is what the kernel
+returns for unsupported TPACKET versions.
