selftests/bpf: Test packet range of pointers sharing an idgrafted

Add tests where two packet pointers share an id and tightening one
pointer's umax from its var_off would put it less than their constant
distance from the other's umax: with an index & 0x38 capped at 50, the
base pointer keeps umax 50, so the pointer 8 bytes further on must keep
umax 58, even though its known bits allow at most 56.

These refused a valid program or accepted an out-of-bounds access before
the fix:

- check the advanced copy, load through the base: valid, was refused;
- check the base, load the byte at base + 1 through a copy advanced by
  8: was accepted;
- check base + 4, load 4 bytes at base + 2 through base + 8: reads two
  bytes past the checked range, was accepted;
- the same as the second with data_meta pointers checked against data:
  was accepted.

These pass with and without the fix and cover nearby paths:

- subtract an unknown scalar from a checked pointer and load below it
  (the range is kept across a new id);
- reach a load through two paths whose checks cover 8 and 7 bytes after
  the loaded pointer; the second path must not be pruned by the first;
- spill a copy of a pointer, check the pointer, fill the copy and load
  one byte past the checked range: the load is refused, and the copy
  has the range of the check.

+A guide to the Kernel Development Process
+=========================================
+
+The purpose of this document is to help developers (and their managers)
+work with the development community with a minimum of frustration.  It is
+an attempt to document how this community works in a way which is
+accessible to those who are not intimately familiar with Linux kernel
+development (or, indeed, free software development in general).  While
+there is some technical material here, this is very much a process-oriented
+discussion which does not require a deep knowledge of kernel programming to
+understand.
