Currently the following test case is considered safe by the verifier:

 1: r9 = ... some pointer with range X ...
 2: r6 = ... unbound scalar ID=a ...
 3: r7 = ... unbound scalar ID=b ...
 4: if (r6 > r7) goto +1
 5: r6 = r7
 6: if (r6 > X) goto ...   ; <-- suppose checkpoint state is created here
 7: r9 += r7
 8: *(u64 *)r9 = Y
 
This happens because function regsafe() used (indirectly) form
is_state_visited() does not compare id mapping for scalar registers.

The following patch makes two chages:
- regsafe() is updated to use check_ids() for scalar registers;
- registers that obtain their range via find_equal_scalars() are
  marked as read in the parent checkpoint states. See
  mark_equal_scalars_as_read() for detailed explanation.

However, I'm not sure if mark_equal_scalars_as_read() is sufficient or
mark_chain_precision() should be called / updated as well.

In current form the patch does not have a big impact on the tests
verification time, as checked on BPF object files listed in
tools/testing/selftests/bpf/veristat.cfg and Cilium object files
obtained from [1]:

./veristat -e file,prog,insns,states -f 'insns_diff!=0' -C master.log current.log
File         Program                  Insns (A)  Insns (B)  Insns    (DIFF)  States (A)  States (B)  States (DIFF)
-----------  -----------------------  ---------  ---------  ---------------  ----------  ----------  -------------

A tweak adding !tnum_is_const(src_reg->var_off) in check_alu_op() is
necessary to achieve this.
