selftests/resctrl: Refactor get_cbm_mask() and rename to get_full_cbm()

Callers of get_cbm_mask() are required to pass a string into which the
capacity bitmask (CBM) is read. Neither CAT nor CMT tests need the
bitmask as string but just convert it into an unsigned long value.

Another limitation is that the bit mask reader can only read
.../cbm_mask files.

Generalize the bit mask reading function into get_bit_mask() such that
it can be used to handle other files besides the .../cbm_mask and
handles the unsigned long conversion within get_bit_mask() using
fscanf(). Change get_cbm_mask() to use get_bit_mask() and rename it to
get_full_cbm() to better indicate what the function does.

Return error from get_full_cbm() if the bitmask is zero for some reason
because it makes the code more robust as the selftests naturally assume
the bitmask has some bits.

Also mark cache_type const while at it and remove useless comments that
are related to processing of CBM bits.
