This adds an opt-in interface for tracepoints to expose a writable context to
BPF_PROG_TYPE_RAW_TRACEPOINT_WRITABLE programs that are attached, while
supporting read-only access from existing BPF_PROG_TYPE_RAW_TRACEPOINT
programs, as well as from non-BPF-based tracepoints.

The initial motivation is to support tracing that can be observed from the
remote end of an NBD socket, e.g. by adding flags to the struct nbd_request
header.  Earlier attempts included adding an NBD-specific tracepoint fd, but in
code review, I was recommended to implement it more generically -- as a result,
this patchset is far simpler than my initial try.

v4->v5:
  * rebased onto bpf-next/master and fixed merge conflicts
  * "tools: sync bpf.h" also syncs comments that have previously changed
    in bpf-next

v3->v4:
  * fixed a silly copy/paste typo in include/trace/events/bpf_test_run.h
    (_TRACE_NBD_H -> _TRACE_BPF_TEST_RUN_H)
  * fixed incorrect/misleading wording in patch 1's commit message,
    since the pointer cannot be directly dereferenced in a
    BPF_PROG_TYPE_RAW_TRACEPOINT
  * cleaned up the error message wording if the prog_tests fail
  * Addressed feedback from Yonghong
    * reject non-pointer-sized accesses to the buffer pointer
    * use sizeof(struct nbd_request) as one-byte-past-the-end in
      raw_tp_writable_reject_nbd_invalid.c
    * use BPF_MOV64_IMM instead of BPF_LD_IMM64

v2->v3:
  * Andrew addressed Josef's comments:
    * C-style commenting in nbd.c
    * Collapsed identical events into a single DECLARE_EVENT_CLASS.
      This saves about 2kB of kernel text

v1->v2:
  * add selftests
    * sync tools/include/uapi/linux/bpf.h
  * reject variable offset into the buffer
  * add string representation of PTR_TO_TP_BUFFER to reg_type_str
