bpftrace parses the kernel headers and uses Clang under the hood. Remove
the version check when __BPF_TRACING__ is defined (as bpftrace does) so
that this tool can continue to parse kernel headers, even with older
clang sources.

Fixes: commit 1f7a44f63e6c ("compiler-clang: add build check for clang 10.0.1")
