Revert "bpf: replace snprintf with asprintf when dealing with long buffers"

This reverts commit c0325b06382cb4f7ebfaf80c29c8800d74666fd9.
It introduces a segfault in bpf_make_custom_path() when custom pinning is used.

This happens because asprintf allocates exactly the space needed to hold a
string in the buffer passed as its first argument, but if this buffer is later
used in strcat() or similar we have a buffer overrun.

As the aim of commit c0325b06382c is simply to fix a compiler warning, it
seems safe and reasonable to revert it.

Fixes: c0325b06382c ("bpf: replace snprintf with asprintf when dealing with long buffers")
