bpf: Fix global subprog context argument resolution logic

KPROBE program's user-facing context type is defined as typedef
bpf_user_pt_regs_t. This leads to a problem when trying to passing
kprobe/uprobe/usdt context argument into global subprog, as kernel
always strip away mods and typedefs of user-supplied type, but takes
expected type from bpf_ctx_convert as is, which causes mismatch.

Current way to work around this is to define a fake struct with the same
name as expected typedef:

  struct bpf_user_pt_regs_t {};

  __noinline my_global_subprog(struct bpf_user_pt_regs_t *ctx) { ... }

This patch fixes the issue by resolving expected type, if it's not
a struct. It still leaves the above work-around working for backwards
compatibility.
