bpf: Add bpf_dynptr_adjust



Add a new kfunc

int bpf_dynptr_adjust(struct bpf_dynptr_kern *ptr, u32 start, u32 end);

which adjusts the dynptr to reflect the new [start, end) interval.
In particular, it advances the offset of the dynptr by "start" bytes,
and if end is less than the size of the dynptr, then this will trim the
dynptr accordingly.

Adjusting the dynptr interval may be useful in certain situations.
For example, when hashing which takes in generic dynptrs, if the dynptr
points to a struct but only a certain memory region inside the struct
should be hashed, adjust can be used to narrow in on the
specific region to hash.
