removal of bpf_tap() (not bpf_mtap)

[Masanobu SAITOH]

Hi.

The following two changes removed bpf_tap() which uses linear data
instead of mbuf:

http://mail-index.netbsd.org/source-changes/2018/06/22/msg096215.html

Only above two drivers used bpf_tap(). There is no any driver
which use it now. Is it OK to remove from bpf.[ch]?

Seems fine to me. It's trivial to wrap a linear buffer in an mbuf if needed.
