libbpf: Avoid reload of imm for weak, unresolved, repeating ksym
Alexei pointed out that we can use BPF_REG_0 which already contains imm from move_blob2blob computation. Note that we now compare the second insn's imm, but this should not matter, since both will be zeroed out for the error case for the insn populated earlier.
