bpf: Add bpf_dynptr_from_mem for local dynptrs
This patch adds a new api bpf_dynptr_from_mem: long bpf_dynptr_from_mem(void *data, u32 size, u64 flags, struct bpf_dynptr *ptr); which initializes a dynptr to point to a bpf program's local memory. For now only local memory that is of reg type PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE is supported.
