net: filter: BPF testsuite

The testsuite covers classic and internal BPF instructions.
It is particularly useful for JIT compiler developers.
Adds to "net" selftest target.

The testsuite can be used as a set of micro-benchmarks.
It measures execution time of each BPF program in nsec.

This patch adds core framework.

This builds the "test_bpf" module that runs various test vectors
against the BPF interpreter or BPF JIT compiler depending on the
current setting. This is in particular useful for BPF JIT compiler
development, but also to run regression tests against changes in
the interpreter code.
