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.
