Subject: [PATCH] CLDSRV-978: Stop installing tcpdump in the kmip cluster job

The step could hang when the apt mirrors are unresponsive.

tcpdump already ships with the runner image, so the install is commented
out rather than deleted, to make it easy to restore if a runner or image
change ever drops the package.
