Boost the maximum packet size to 131072.
Libpcap 1.6/tcpdump 4.6 will support up to 131072, as the MTU on the
Linux loopback device is 65536 on at least some versions of the kernel,
and that doesn't count the fake Ethernet header, so the maximum packet
size is 65549; they went to the next power of 2 up.
