The test_sys_enter_exit test was setting target_pid before attaching the BPF programs, which causes syscalls made during the attach phase to be counted. This is flaky because, apparently, there is no guarantee that both on_enter and on_exit will trigger during the attachment. Move the target_pid assignment to after task_local_storage__attach() so that only explicit sys_gettid() calls are counted.
