bpf: Represent stack access effects with arg_access_info
The following patches in the series add support for may_write property inference. To properly track this property there is a need to distinguish three ways the helpers/kfuncs affect stack: - read; - write and destroy all previous stack tracking information for affected slots; - both read and write the stack slots, potentially preserving some of the tracking information. The later property can't be encoded by signed access_byte convention. Hence, introduce arg_access_info with a size and separate may_read, may_write and must_write bits. Convert the liveness access recording paths to use it. Proper may_write calculation and support will be added in the following patches.
