[PATCH bpf-next v3 05/13] bpf: 4-byte precise clean_verifier_state

[Eduard Zingerman <eddyz87@gmail.com>]

Migrate clean_verifier_state() and its liveness queries from 8-byte
SPI granularity to 4-byte half-slot granularity.

In __clean_func_state(), each SPI is cleaned in two independent
halves:
  - half_spi 2*i   (lo): slot_type[0..3]
  - half_spi 2*i+1 (hi): slot_type[4..7]

Slot types STACK_DYNPTR, STACK_ITER and STACK_IRQ_FLAG are never
cleaned, as their slot type markers are required by
destroy_if_dynptr_stack_slot(), is_iter_reg_valid_uninit() and
is_irq_flag_reg_valid_uninit() for correctness.

When only the hi half is dead, spilled_ptr metadata is destroyed and
the lo half's STACK_SPILL bytes are downgraded to STACK_MISC or
STACK_ZERO. When only the lo half is dead, spilled_ptr is preserved
because the hi half may still need it for state comparison.
