rtla/tests: Test BPF action program

Add a test that implements a BPF program writing to a test map, which
is attached to RTLA via --bpf-action to be executed on theshold
overflow.

A combination of --on-threshold shell with bpftool (which is always
present if BPF support is enabled) is used to check whether the BPF
program has executed successfully.
