net: filter: BPF testsuite
The testsuite covers classic and internal BPF instructions.
It is particularly useful for JIT compiler developers.
Adds to "net" selftest target.
The testsuite can be used as a set of micro-benchmarks.
It measures execution time of each BPF program in nsec.
This patch adds core framework.

+ This builds the "test_bpf" module that runs various test vectors
