bpf: Rename MEM_ALLOC to MEM_RINGBUF
Currently, verifier uses MEM_ALLOC type tag to specially tag memory returned from bpf_ringbuf_reserve helper. However, this is currently only used for this purpose and there is an implicit assumption that it only refers to ringbuf memory (e.g. the check for ARG_PTR_TO_ALLOC_MEM in check_func_arg_reg_off). Hence, rename MEM_ALLOC to MEM_RINGBUF to indicate this special relationship and instead open the use of MEM_ALLOC for more generic allocations made for user types. Also, since ARG_PTR_TO_ALLOC_MEM_OR_NULL is unused, simply drop it. Finally, update selftests using 'alloc_' verifier string to 'ringbuf_'.
