selftests/bpf: Add variable-length data concat pattern less than test
Extend original variable-length tests with a case to catch a common existing pattern of testing for < 0 for errors. Note because verifier also tracks upper bounds and we know it can not be greater than MAX_LEN here we can skip upper bound check. In ALU64 enabled compilation converting from long->int return types in probe helpers results in extra instruction pattern, <<= 32, s >>= 32. The trade-off is the non-ALU64 case works. If you really care about every extra insn (XDP case?) then you probably should be using original int type. In addition adding a sext insn to bpf might help the verifier in the general case to avoid these types of tricks.
