selftests/bpf: Preserve errno in test_progs CHECK macros



It's follow-up for discussion [1]

CHECK and CHECK_FAIL macros in test_progs.h can affect errno in some
circumstances, e.g. if some code accidentally closes stdout. It makes
checking errno in patterns like this unreliable:

	if (CHECK(!bpf_prog_attach_xattr(...), "tag", "msg"))
		goto err;
	CHECK_FAIL(errno != ENOENT);

, since by CHECK_FAIL time errno could be affected not only by
bpf_prog_attach_xattr but by CHECK as well.

Fix it by saving and restoring errno in the macros. There is no "Fixes"
tag since no problems were discovered yet and it's rather precaution.

test_progs was run with this change and no difference was identified.
