Tcp SYN packet retransmits are a very useful signal as they affect
network performance disproportionately to regular TCP retransmits.

Netstat is 40% of the metrics on my laptop, many of which
are highly detailed information about IP internals in the kernel.
~300 such metrics on every machine in your fleet is excessive,
so focus on key metrics by default, overridable by the user.
Fixes#515

Named return variables should only be used to describe the returned type
further, e.g. `err error` doesn't add any new information and is just
stutter.
Remove all hardcoded references to `/proc`. For all collectors that do
not use `github.com/prometheus/procfs` yet, provide a wrapper to
generate the full paths.
Reformulate help strings, errors and comments to remove absolute
references to `/proc`.
This is a breaking change: the `-collector.ipvs.procfs` flag is removed
in favor of the general flag. Since it only affected that collector it
was only useful for development, so this should not cause many issues.
