wgengine/magicsock: remove redundant deadline from netcheck report call (#13395)

netcheck.Client.GetReport() applies its own deadlines. This 2s deadline
was causing GetReport() to never fall back to HTTPS/ICMP measurements
as it was shorter than netcheck.stunProbeTimeout, leaving no time
for fallbacks.

Updates #13394
Updates #6187
