[PATCH bpf-next v2 02/10] bpf: Drop the recursion depth argument of btf_type_is_scalar_struct()

[Yonghong Song <yonghong.song@linux.dev>]

btf_type_is_scalar_struct() recurses into nested struct members and
carries the nesting depth in a @rec argument, so every caller has to
spell out the 0 that starts the walk.

Move the recursion into a static helper that keeps @rec and leave
btf_type_is_scalar_struct() as a thin wrapper over it, so callers only
name the type they are asking about.

No functional change.
