bpf: Add a kfunc for generic type cast
Implement bpf_rdonly_cast() which tries to cast the object
to a specified type. This tries to support use case like below:
#define skb_shinfo(SKB) ((struct skb_shared_info *)(skb_end_pointer(SKB)))
where skb_end_pointer(SKB) is a 'unsigned char *' and needs to
be casted to 'struct skb_shared_info *'.
The signature of bpf_rdonly_cast() looks like
void *bpf_rdonly_cast(void *obj, __u32 btf_id)
The function returns the same 'obj' but with PTR_TO_BTF_ID with
btf_id. The verifier will ensure btf_id being a struct type.
Since the supported type cast may not reflect what the 'obj'
represents, the returned btf_id is marked as PTR_UNTRUSTED, so
the return value and subsequent pointer chasing cannot be
used as helper/kfunc arguments.
