Libertarianism might rely on individuals generally being that prosocial, but that specific thing isn't necessary. Most jobs don't get tips. There's no reason waiters need them.
As I understand it, in the USA waiting staff get paid below minimum wage and are expected to live off tips.
If tipping stopped, waiting staff wages would increase and so would food prices (to pay for the wage increases).
