bpf: Support readonly/readwrite buffers in verifier
Readonly and readwrite buffer register states are introduced. Totally four states, PTR_TO_RDONLY_BUF[_OR_NULL] and PTR_TO_RDWR_BUF[_OR_NULL] are supported. As suggested by their respective names, PTR_TO_RDONLY_BUF[_OR_NULL] are for readonly buffers and PTR_TO_RDWR_BUF[_OR_NULL] for read/write buffers. These new register states will be used by later bpf map element iterator. New register states share some similarity to PTR_TO_TP_BUFFER as it will calculate accessed buffer size during verification time. The accessed buffer size will be later compared to other metrics during later attach/link_create time. Similar to reg_state PTR_TO_BTF_ID_OR_NULL in bpf iterator programs, PTR_TO_RDONLY_BUF_OR_NULL or PTR_TO_RDWR_BUF_OR_NULL reg_types can be set at prog->aux->bpf_ctx_arg_aux, and bpf verifier will retrieve the values during btf_ctx_access(). Later bpf map element iterator implementation will show how such information will be assigned during target registeration time. The verifier is also enhanced such that PTR_TO_RDONLY_BUF can be passed to ARG_PTR_TO_MEM[_OR_NULL] helper argument, and PTR_TO_RDWR_BUF can be passed to ARG_PTR_TO_MEM[_OR_NULL] or ARG_PTR_TO_UNINIT_MEM.
