[PATCH v3 bpf-next 2/4] bpf: add arg:nullable tag to be combined with trusted pointers

[Andrii Nakryiko <andrii@kernel.org>]

Add ability to mark arg:trusted arguments with optional arg:nullable
tag to mark it as PTR_TO_BTF_ID_OR_NULL variant, which will allow
callers to pass NULL, and subsequently will force global subprog's code
to do NULL check. This allows to have "optional" PTR_TO_BTF_ID values
passed into global subprogs.

For now arg:nullable cannot be combined with anything else.
