bpf: Add MEM_RDONLY for helper args that are pointers to rdonly mem.
Some helper functions may modify its arguments, for example, bpf_d_path, bpf_get_stack etc. Previously, their argument types were marked as ARG_PTR_TO_MEM, which is compatible with read-only mem types, such as PTR_TO_RDONLY_BUF. Therefore it's legitimate, but technically incorrect, to modify a read-only memory by passing it into one of such helper functions. This patch tags the bpf_args compatible with immutable memory with MEM_RDONLY flag. The arguments that don't have this flag will be only compatible with mutable memory types, preventing the helper from modifying a read-only memory. The bpf_args that have MEM_RDONLY are compatible with both mutable memory and immutable memory.
