Leon Hwang da77f3a9aa selftests/bpf: Add test to verify the fix of kprobe_write_ctx abuse
Add a test to verify the issue: kprobe_write_ctx can be abused to modify
struct pt_regs of kernel functions via kprobe_write_ctx=true freplace
progs.

Without the fix, the issue is verified:

kprobe_write_ctx=true freplace prog is allowed to attach to
kprobe_write_ctx=false kprobe prog. Then, the first arg of
bpf_fentry_test1 will be set as 0, and bpf_prog_test_run_opts() gets
-EFAULT instead of 0.

With the fix, the issue is rejected at attach time.
