Enable some previously disabled syscalls in snapshot mode that look safe for snapshot mode. In snapshot mode we don't rely on the actual networking, and should be able to survive runner process kills, and disk shutdown.
It seems that consts for the file were generated for a single file only, or manually written. I can't find any upstream/linux-next revision where all consts can be regenered. On next-20251111 where we last generated all consts, some of these MALI consts are not present yet. On newer revisions make extract is broken. Add manual defines so that descriptions can be at least re-generated on next-20251111.

Enable more syscalls in snapshot mode, since the snapshot mode can tolerate more behaviors as compared to non-snapshot mode (e.g. fuzzing reboot syscall).
Disable bpf$BPF_RAW_TRACEPOINT_OPEN in non-snapshot mode. Currently it relates to ~10% of all syzbot crashes by producing false "lost connection" crashes.
