bpf/verifier: per-register parent pointers
By giving each register its own liveness chain, we elide the skip_callee()
logic. Instead, each register's parent is the state it inherits from;
both check_func_call() and prepare_func_exit() automatically connect
reg states to the correct chain since when they copy the reg state across
(r1-r5 into the callee as args, and r0 out as the return value) they also
copy the parent pointer.
