    Fix padding in struct tcp_info

    This structure should have the same size across different FreeBSD
    versions to ensure backwards-compatibility.  It has since stable/6.  But
    two recent changes added fields without compensating by reducing
    padding:
    945f9a7cc9dcc071bfcc702748fbbb11087ae773 and
    22c81cc51636cfebe94e0979eb31556d87775938 .  Reduce padding to
    compensate.

    Direct commit to stable/14 because we decided to break compatibility in
    FreeBSD 15 in order to add more fields.  Of course, that decision could
    be reversed before 15.0-RELEASE.  See the review for details.
