This patch aims to introduce BPF injection capabilities for SMC and
includes a self-test to ensure code stability.

Since the SMC protocol isn't ideal for every situation, especially
short-lived ones, most applications can't guarantee the absence of
such scenarios. Consequently, applications may need specific strategies
to decide whether to use SMC. For example, an application might limit SMC
usage to certain IP addresses or ports.

To maintain the principle of transparent replacement, we want applications
to remain unaffected even if they need specific SMC strategies. In other
words, they should not require recompilation of their code.

Additionally, we need to ensure the scalability of strategy implementation.
While using socket options or sysctl might be straightforward, it could
complicate future expansions.

Fortunately, BPF addresses these concerns effectively. Users can write
their own strategies in eBPF to determine whether to use SMC, and they can
easily modify those strategies in the future.

This is a rework of the series from [1]. Changes since [1] are limited to
the SMC parts:

1. Rename smc_ops to smc_hs_ctrl and change interface name.
2. Squash SMC patches, removing standalone non-BPF hook capability.
3. Fix typos
