bpf: Add bpf_this_cpu_ptr/bpf_per_cpu_ptr support for allocated percpu obj



The bpf helpers bpf_this_cpu_ptr() and bpf_per_cpu_ptr() are re-purposed
for allocated percpu objects. For an allocated percpu obj,
the reg type is 'PTR_TO_BTF_ID | MEM_PERCPU | MEM_RCU'.

The return type for these two re-purposed helpera is
'PTR_TO_MEM | MEM_RCU | MEM_ALLOC'.
The MEM_ALLOC allows that the per-cpu data can be read and written.

Since the memory allocator bpf_mem_alloc() returns
a ptr to a percpu ptr for percpu data, the first argument
of bpf_this_cpu_ptr() and bpf_per_cpu_ptr() is patched
with a dereference before passing to the helper func.
