bpf: Abstract loop unrolling pragmas in BPF selftests

[Changes from V1:
- Avoid conflict by rebasing with latest master.]

Some BPF tests use loop unrolling compiler pragmas that are clang
specific and not supported by GCC. These pragmas, along with their
GCC equivalences are:

#pragma clang loop unroll_count(N)
#pragma GCC unroll N

#pragma clang loop unroll(full)
#pragma GCC unroll 65534

#pragma clang loop unroll(disable)
#pragma GCC unroll 1

#pragma unroll [aka #pragma clang loop unroll(enable)]
There is no GCC equivalence to this pragma. It enables unrolling on
loops that the compiler would not ordinarily unroll even with
-O2|-funroll-loops, but it is not equivalent to full unrolling
either.

This patch adds a new header progs/bpf_compiler.h that defines the
following macros, which correspond to each pair of compiler-specific
pragmas above:

__pragma_loop_unroll_count(N)
__pragma_loop_unroll_full
__pragma_loop_no_unroll
__pragma_loop_unroll

The selftests using loop unrolling pragmas are then changed to include
the header and use these macros in place of the explicit pragmas.

Tested in bpf-next master.
No regressions.
