This release fixes unnecessary high latency when XDP is enabled.

To support BPF filtering for recent kernels, it was necessary to give the control plane server the CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability. This is now disabled by default so the cplane_track_xdp module option must be provided, for example via the modprobe configuration.
