bpf: Introduce BPF_MAP_TYPE_REUSEPORT_SOCKARRAY

This patch introduces a new map type BPF_MAP_TYPE_REUSEPORT_SOCKARRAY.

To unleash the full potential of a bpf prog, it is essential for the
userspace to be capable of directly setting up a bpf map which can then
be consumed by the bpf prog to make decision.  In this case, decide which
SO_REUSEPORT sk to serve the incoming request.

By adding BPF_MAP_TYPE_REUSEPORT_SOCKARRAY, the userspace has total control
and visibility on where a SO_REUSEPORT sk should be located in a bpf map.
The later patch will introduce BPF_PROG_TYPE_SK_REUSEPORT such that
the bpf prog can directly select a sk from the bpf map.  That will
raise the programmability of the bpf prog attached to a reuseport
group (a group of sk serving the same IP:PORT).

For example, in UDP, the bpf prog can peek into the payload (e.g.
through the "data" pointer introduced in the later patch) to learn
the application level's connection information and then decide which sk
to pick from a bpf map.  The userspace can tightly couple the sk's location
in a bpf map with the application logic in generating the UDP payload's
connection information.  This connection info contact/API stays within the
userspace.

Also, when used with map-in-map, the userspace can switch the
old-server-process's inner map to a new-server-process's inner map
in one call "bpf_map_update_elem(outer_map, &index, &new_reuseport_array)".
The bpf prog will then direct incoming requests to the new process instead
of the old process.  The old process can finish draining the pending
requests (e.g. by "accept()") before closing the old-fds.  [Note that
deleting a fd from a bpf map does not necessary mean the fd is closed]

During map_update_elem(),
Only SO_REUSEPORT sk (i.e. which has already been added
to a reuse->socks[]) can be used.  That means a SO_REUSEPORT sk that is
"bind()" for UDP or "bind()+listen()" for TCP.  These conditions are
ensured in "reuseport_array_update_check()".

A SO_REUSEPORT sk can only be added once to a map (i.e. the
same sk cannot be added twice even to the same map).  SO_REUSEPORT
already allows another sk to be created for the same IP:PORT.
There is no need to re-create a similar usage in the BPF side.

When a SO_REUSEPORT is deleted from the "reuse->socks[]" (e.g. "close()"),
it will notify the bpf map to remove it from the map also.  It is
done through "bpf_sk_reuseport_detach()" and it will only be called
if >=1 of the "reuse->sock[]" has ever been added to a bpf map.

The map_update()/map_delete() has to be in-sync with the
"reuse->socks[]".  Hence, the same "reuseport_lock" used
by "reuse->socks[]" has to be used here also. Care has
been taken to ensure the lock is only acquired when the
adding sk passes some strict tests. and
freeing the map does not require the reuseport_lock.

The reuseport_array will also support lookup from the syscall
side.  It will return a sock_gen_cookie().  The sock_gen_cookie()
is on-demand (i.e. a sk's cookie is not generated until the very
first map_lookup_elem()).

The lookup cookie is 64bits but it goes against the logical userspace
expectation on 32bits sizeof(fd) (and as other fd based bpf maps do also).
It may catch user in surprise if we enforce value_size=8 while
userspace still pass a 32bits fd during update.  Supporting different
value_size between lookup and update seems unintuitive also.

We also need to consider what if other existing fd based maps want
to return 64bits value from syscall's lookup in the future.
Hence, reuseport_array supports both value_size 4 and 8, and
assuming user will usually use value_size=4.  The syscall's lookup
will return ENOSPC on value_size=4.  It will will only
return 64bits value from sock_gen_cookie() when user consciously
choose value_size=8 (as a signal that lookup is desired) which then
requires a 64bits value in both lookup and update.
