Varun R Mallya bb6da652c5 selftests/bpf: Improve connect_force_port test reliability
The connect_force_port test fails intermittently in CI because the
hardcoded server ports (60123/60124) may already be in use by other
tests or processes [1].

Fix this by passing port 0 to start_server(), letting the kernel assign
a free port dynamically. The actual assigned port is then propagated to
the BPF programs by writing it into the .bss map's initial value (via
bpf_map__initial_value()) before loading, so the BPF programs use the
correct backend port at runtime.
