bpf: Prefer dirty packs for eBPF allocations
The pack allocator only flushes predictors when reusing a dirty pack for
cBPF, eBPF allocations never trigger a flush. Currently, eBPF picks the
first free pack, which could be a clean pack. As an optimization, leaving
a clean pack for cBPF can avoid flushes.
Prefer dirty packs for eBPF and keep clean packs free for cBPF. This
mirrors the existing cBPF preference for clean packs: each program kind
prefers the pack that avoids an extra flush, and falls back to the other
kind only when no preferred pack has room. eBPF reuse of a dirty pack is
harmless since eBPF being privileged does not flush.
