[RESEND,bpf-next,v2,0/2] bpf, x64: Introduce two tailcall enhancements

Message

This patch set introduces two enhancements aimed at improving tailcall
handling in the x64 JIT:

1. Tailcall info is propagated only for subprogs.
2. Tailcall info is propagated through the trampoline only when the target
   is a subprog and it is tail_call_reachable.

v1 -> v2:
  * Address comment from Alexei:
    * Rather live with tail call inefficiency than abuse insns fields
      further.

  bpf, x64: Propagate tailcall info only for subprogs
  bpf, verifier: Check trampoline target is tail_call_reachable subprog
