bpf: verifier: Refactor helper access type tracking
Previously, the verifier was treating all PTR_TO_STACK registers passed to a helper call as potentially written to by the helper. However, all calls to check_stack_range_initialized() already have precise access type information available.
Rather than treat ACCESS_HELPER as a proxy for BPF_WRITE, pass enum bpf_access_type to check_stack_range_initialized() to more precisely track helper arguments.
One benefit from this precision is that registers tracked as valid spills and passed as a read-only helper argument remain tracked after the call. Rather than being marked STACK_MISC afterwards.
An additional benefit is the verifier logs are also more precise. For this particular error, users will enjoy a slightly clearer message. See included selftest updates for examples.
