Matt Bobrowski 752b807028 bpf: add new BPF_CGROUP_ITER_CHILDREN control option
Currently, the BPF cgroup iterator supports walking descendants in
either pre-order (BPF_CGROUP_ITER_DESCENDANTS_PRE) or post-order
(BPF_CGROUP_ITER_DESCENDANTS_POST). These modes perform an exhaustive
depth-first search (DFS) of the hierarchy. In scenarios where a BPF
program may need to inspect only the direct children of a given parent
cgroup, a full DFS is unnecessarily expensive.

This patch introduces a new BPF cgroup iterator control option,
BPF_CGROUP_ITER_CHILDREN. This control option restricts the traversal
to the immediate children of a specified parent cgroup, allowing for
more targeted and efficient iteration, particularly when exhaustive
depth-first search (DFS) traversal is not required.
