tools/sched_ext: scx_qmap: Fix qa arena placement

__arena is a pointer qualifier meaning "this pointer points to arena
memory". When used on a global variable declaration, it expands to
nothing in scx's build because __BPF_FEATURE_ADDR_SPACE_CAST is never
defined, leaving qa as a plain global in BSS. bpftool then generates
skel->bss->qa instead of the expected skel->arena->qa, causing:

  scx_qmap.c: error: 'struct scx_qmap' has no member named 'arena'

__arena_global is the correct annotation for global variables that
reside in the arena. When __BPF_FEATURE_ADDR_SPACE_CAST is not defined
it expands to SEC(".addr_space.1"), placing qa in the arena ELF section.
When __BPF_FEATURE_ADDR_SPACE_CAST is defined it expands to
__attribute__((address_space(1))). In both cases bpftool generates the
typed skel->arena accessor.
