wgengine/netstack: increase gVisor's TCP send and receive buffer sizes (#12994)
This commit increases gVisor's TCP max send (4->6MiB) and receive
(4->8MiB) buffer sizes on all platforms except iOS. These values are
biased towards higher throughput on high bandwidth-delay product paths.

The iperf3 results below demonstrate the effect of this commit between
two Linux computers with i5-12400 CPUs. 100ms of RTT latency is
introduced via Linux's traffic control network emulator queue
discipline.

The first set of results are from commit f0230ce prior to TCP buffer
resizing.

The second set of results are from this commit with increased TCP
buffer sizes.
