selftest/bpf: Fmod_ret prog and implement test_overhead as part of bench

Add fmod_ret BPF program to existing test_overhead selftest. Also re-implement
user-space benchmarking part into benchmark runner to compare results. Results
with ./bench are consistently somewhat lower than test_overhead's, but relative
performance of various types of BPF programs stay consisten (e.g., kretprobe is
noticeably slower). This slowdown seems to be coming from the fact that
test_overhead is single-threaded, while benchmark always spins off at least
one thread for producer. This has been confirmed by hacking multi-threaded
test_overhead variant and also single-threaded bench variant. Resutls are
below. run_bench_rename.sh script from benchs/ subdirectory was used to
produce results for ./bench.

task_rename fexit       3558K events per sec
task_rename fmod_ret    3511K events per sec

/* selftest: multi-threaded, no atomics */
task_rename base        3945K events per sec
task_rename kprobe      3298K events per sec
task_rename kretprobe   2451K events per sec
task_rename raw_tp      3718K events per sec
task_rename fentry      3782K events per sec
task_rename fexit       3543K events per sec
task_rename fmod_ret    3526K events per sec

Note that the fact that ./bench benchmark always uses atomic increments for
counting, while test_overhead doesn't, doesn't influence test results all that
much.
