selftests/bpf: xdp_hw_metadata cleanup cause segfault

Using xdp_hw_metadata I experince Segmentation fault after seeing
"detaching bpf program....".

On my system the segfault happened when accessing bpf_obj->skeleton
in xdp_hw_metadata__destroy(bpf_obj) call. That doesn't make any sense
as this memory have not been freed by program at this point in time.

Prior to calling xdp_hw_metadata__destroy(bpf_obj) the function
close_xsk() is called for each RX-queue xsk.  The real bug lays
in close_xsk() that unmap via munmap() the wrong memory pointer.
The call xsk_umem__delete(xsk->umem) will free xsk->umem, thus
the call to munmap(xsk->umem, UMEM_SIZE) will have unpredictable
behavior. And man page explain subsequent references to these
pages will generate SIGSEGV.

Unmapping xsk->umem_area instead removes the segfault.
