bpf: Print breakdown of insns processed by subprogs

When using global functions, the verifier performs function-by-function
verification, and only the sum of instructions processed is reported.
This patch implements a breakdown of instructions processed per global
function under BPF_LOG_STATS, as is done for stack depths.

Does this code cause an out-of-bounds read of the func_info_aux array?

If a default exception callback is injected during verification,
add_hidden_subprog() increments env->subprog_cnt but does not resize the
func_info_aux array.

When print_verification_stats() later iterates up to the new env->subprog_cnt
and calls bpf_subprog_is_global(env, i):

kernel/bpf/verifier.c:bpf_subprog_is_global() {
	struct bpf_func_info_aux *aux = env->prog->aux->func_info_aux;

	return aux && aux[subprog].linkage == BTF_FUNC_GLOBAL;
}

Could this read past the end of the aux array when i reaches the index of
the newly added hidden subprogram?
