bpf: add __arg_trusted global func arg tag
Add support for passing PTR_TO_BTF_ID registers to global subprogs. Currently only PTR_TRUSTED flavor of PTR_TO_BTF_ID is supported. Non-NULL semantics is assumed, so caller will be forced to prove PTR_TO_BTF_ID can't be NULL. Note, we disallow global subprogs to destroy passed in PTR_TO_BTF_ID arguments, even the trusted one. We achieve that by not setting ref_obj_id when validating subprog code. This basically enforces (in Rust terms) borrowing semantics vs move semantics. Borrowing semantics seems to be a better fit for isolated global subprog validation approach. Implementation-wise, we utilize existing logic for matching user-provided BTF type to kernel-side BTF type, used by BPF CO-RE logic and following same matching rules. We enforce a unique match for types.
