bpf: introduce new VFS based BPF kfuncs

Add a new variant of bpf_d_path() named bpf_path_d_path() which takes
the form of a BPF kfunc and enforces KF_TRUSTED_ARGS semantics onto
its arguments.

This new d_path() based BPF kfunc variant is intended to address the
legacy bpf_d_path() BPF helper's susceptability to memory corruption
issues [0, 1, 2] by ensuring to only operate on supplied arguments
which are deemed trusted by the BPF verifier. Typically, this means
that only pointers to a struct path which have been referenced counted
may be supplied.

In addition to the new bpf_path_d_path() BPF kfunc, we also add a
KF_ACQUIRE based BPF kfunc bpf_get_task_exe_file() and KF_RELEASE
counterpart BPF kfunc bpf_put_file(). This is so that the new
bpf_path_d_path() BPF kfunc can be used more flexibily from within the
context of a BPF LSM program. It's rather common to ascertain the
backing executable file for the calling process by performing the
following walk current->mm->exe_file while instrumenting a given
operation from the context of the BPF LSM program. However, walking
current->mm->exe_file directly is never deemed to be OK, and doing so
from both inside and outside of BPF LSM program context should be
considered as a bug. Using bpf_get_task_exe_file() and in turn
bpf_put_file() will allow BPF LSM programs to reliably get and put
references to current->mm->exe_file.

As of now, all the newly introduced BPF kfuncs within this patch are
limited to BPF LSM program types. These can be either sleepable or
non-sleepable variants of BPF LSM program types.
