Puranjay Mohan 7a433e5193 bpf: Support negative offsets, BPF_SUB, and alu32 for linked register tracking
Previously, the verifier only tracked positive constant deltas between
linked registers using BPF_ADD. This limitation meant patterns like:

  r1 = r0;
  r1 += -4;
  if r1 s>= 0 goto l0_%=;   // r1 >= 0 implies r0 >= 4
  // verifier couldn't propagate bounds back to r0
  if r0 != 0 goto l0_%=;
	r0 /= 0; // Verifier thinks this is reachable
  l0_%=:

Similar limitation exists for 32-bit registers.

With this change, the verifier can now track negative deltas in reg->off
enabling bound propagation for the above pattern.

For alu32, we make sure the destination register has the upper 32 bits
as 0s before creating the link. BPF_ADD_CONST is split into
BPF_ADD_CONST64 and BPF_ADD_CONST32, the latter is used in case of alu32
and sync_linked_regs uses this to zext the result if known_reg has this
flag.
