Prevent map lookups in traceglobal probe when using Go >= 1.24 (#1573)

* Add pkg constraint for Go swiss maps

Do no load the traceglobal direct global API instrumentation if the Go
version being used means swiss maps back the Go map implementation. The
probe does not handle this implementation but requires map parsing.

* Add warning to COMPATIBILITY.md

* Add a changelog entry
