bpf: Hoist type checking for nullable arg types

check_func_arg has a plethora of weird if statements with empty branches.
They work around the fact that *_OR_NULL argument types should accept a
SCALAR_VALUE register, as long as it's value is 0. These statements make
it difficult to reason about the type checking logic.

Instead, skip more detailed type checking logic iff the register is 0,
and the function expects a nullable type. This allows simplifying the type
checking itself.
