bpf: Add a bpf_sock_from_file helper


While eBPF programs can check whether a file is a socket by file->f_op
== &socket_file_ops, they cannot convert the void private_data pointer
to a struct socket BTF pointer. In order to do this a new helper
wrapping sock_from_file is added.

This is useful to tracing programs but also other program types
inheriting this set of helpers such as iterators or LSM programs.
