[PATCH bpf-next v4 00/13] Add arena argument support to kfuncs and struct_ops

[Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi <memxor@gmail.com>]

This is a continuation of patches in [0], with mostly minor changes and
reordering. The motivation is covered in that link. A major change is
moving to two tags (__arena and __arena__nullable) and moving the changes
to JIT to emit more optimized sequences.

Please see commit logs for details.

Changelog:
----------
v3 -> v4
v3: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20260803125115.2264733-1-memxor@gmail.com

 * Rename __arena_nullable to __arena__nullable and prioritize the
   composite suffix over __nullable during argument classification.
   (Sashiko, Eduard)
 * Resolve instructions before collecting subprograms and kfuncs so kfunc
   prototype validation can use associated arena state.
 * Move the arena kfunc and JIT-sequence test entry points into
   prog_tests/verifier.c. (Eduard)
 * Match the generated L0 target and call in nullable JIT assertions.
   (Eduard)
 * Route arena kfunc validation through the common argument-checking path.
   (Amery)
 * Reuse btf_func_model argument flags for struct_ops arena arguments
   instead of maintaining separate trampoline slot metadata. (Eduard)
 * Check the generic-trampoline arena argument invariant at link time and
   warn once on violations. (Eduard)
 * Reject tracing attachments to struct_ops programs with arena context
   arguments whose indirect trampolines convert the pointers. (Sashiko)

v2 -> v3
v2: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20260726013105.3689867-1-memxor@gmail.com

 * Rebase onto current bpf-next to resolve conflicts.

v1 -> v2
v1: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20260715220052.1590783-1-memxor@gmail.com

 * Fix documentation to only mention x86 for now. (Sashiko)
 * Move arg bitmap from insn_aux_data to kfunc descriptor. (Eduard)
