bpf: mark a NULL kfunc argument precisegrafted
check_kfunc_arg() allows bpf_register_is_null() for nullable arguments
w/o marking the underlying scalar register precise. Hence a checkpoint
created on such a path would prune against arbitrary scalar value.
Fixes: 3bda08b63670 ("bpf: Allow NULL buffers in bpf_dynptr_slice(_rw)")
