bpf: Reject offset refcount acquire arguments

bpf_refcount_acquire() increments the refcount at the caller-supplied
pointer plus the refcount field offset, then returns the caller-supplied
pointer unchanged.

The verifier records the return value as a base pointer to the refcounted
object.

bpf_list_pop_front() and bpf_rbtree_remove() can return embedded
graph-node pointers as PTR_TO_BTF_ID | MEM_ALLOC with a fixed offset equal
to the node field offset. Passing such a pointer directly to
bpf_refcount_acquire() currently passes the refcounted-kptr type check.

That makes the runtime operation start from base + node_off while the
verifier models the returned pointer as the object base.

Require refcount-acquire arguments to have zero fixed offset by carrying
the requirement through check_func_arg_reg_off() to __check_ptr_off_reg().
Programs can still acquire a refcount from a graph-node-derived pointer
after normalizing it with container_of().
