bpf, events: fix offset in skb copy handler
This patch fixes the __output_custom() routine we currently use with bpf_skb_copy(). I missed that when len is larger than the size of the current handle, we can issue multiple invocations of copy_func, and __output_custom() advances destination but also source buffer by the written amount of bytes. When we have __output_custom(), this is actually wrong since in that case the source buffer points to a non-linear object, in our case an skb, which the copy_func helper is supposed to walk. Therefore, since this is non-linear we thus need to pass the offset into the helper, so that copy_func can use it for extracting the data from the source object. Therefore, adjust the callback signatures properly and pass offset into the skb_header_pointer() invoked from bpf_skb_copy() callback. The __DEFINE_OUTPUT_COPY_BODY() is adjusted to accommodate for two things: i) to pass in whether we should advance source buffer or not; this is a compile-time constant condition, ii) to pass in the offset for __output_custom(), which we do with help of __VA_ARGS__, so everything can stay inlined as is currently. Both changes allow for adapting the __output_* fast-path helpers w/o extra overhead.
