libbpf: Remove gcc support for bpf_tail_call_static for now 

This reverts commit 14e5ce7994 ("libbpf: Add GCC support for
bpf_tail_call_static"). Reason is that gcc invented their own BPF asm
which is not conform with LLVM one, and going forward this would be
more painful to maintain here and in other areas of the library. Thus
remove it; ask to gcc folks is to align with LLVM one to use exact
same syntax.
