toolchain/59364: ctf tools needs update

>Severity:       serious

The NetCTF Updation
>Environment:
>Description:
I tried using -Wl,-z,pack-relative-relocs (see PR bin/59360: ld.elf_so(8): missing RELR support, https://gnats.NetBSD.org/59360) and nbctfmerge failed with:

ERROR: nbctfmerge: h_r_relative_pack: Cannot get sect .relr.dyn data: Invalid section descriptor

ctf upstream probably also supports >32k types these days (not verified) which will help us avoid hitting limits in the kernel that break dtrace type information too.
>How-To-Repeat:
enable newfangled linker toys like -Wl,-z,pack-relative-relocs in a MKCTF=yes build
>Fix:
Yes, please!
