Andrew Dunham 16587746ed portlist,tstest: skip tests on kernels with /proc/net/tcp regression
Linux kernel versions 6.6.102-104 and 6.12.42-45 have a regression
in /proc/net/tcp that causes seek operations to fail with "illegal seek".
This breaks portlist tests on these kernels.

Add kernel version detection for Linux systems and a SkipOnKernelVersions
helper to tstest. Use it to skip affected portlist tests on the broken
kernel versions.

Thanks to philiptaron for the list of kernels with the issue and fix.

Updates #16966
