[PATCH bpf] bpf: Fix the test_task_vma selftest to support output shorter than 1 kB

[Maxim Mikityanskiy]

The test for bpf_iter_task_vma assumes that the output will be longer
than 1 kB, as the comment above the loop says. Due to this assumption,
the loop becomes infinite if the output turns to be shorter than 1 kB.
The return value of read_fd_into_buffer is 0 when the end of file was
reached, and len isn't being increased any more.

This commit adds a break on EOF to handle short output correctly. For
the reference, this is the contents that I get when running test_progs
under vmtest.sh, and it's shorter than 1 kB:
