bpf: Track verifier instruction stats for each subprogram
The verifier currently records one instruction count for the main program
and each global subprogram checked independently. Static subprograms are
explored within callers, so their verification cost cannot be reported
separately.
Track both self and inclusive instruction counts for every subprogram.
Charge each processed instruction as self work to the current subprogram and
to a path-local subtotal in its function frame. When a function returns, add
the callee subtotal to its inclusive count and to its parent subtotal. Fold
any remaining frames when a path terminates or is pruned.
Instruction subtotals are accounting state, not semantic verifier state.
Clear them when a verifier state is copied so work before a path fork is
charged once, rather than again when a saved branch is explored. If copying
a saved state fails before all frames are allocated, skip missing frames
while folding the current path.
This generic frame accounting also records self and inclusive totals when an
asynchronous callback starts as a fresh frame-zero state. It does not yet
charge that independently explored callback path back to the main or global
exploration root which scheduled it. That will be done in subsequent
changes.
This does not change the verification statistics output format. It only
prepares the counters for per-subprogram reporting.
