selftests/bpf: Use memfd_create instead of shm_open in cgroup_iter_memcg
Replace shm_open/shm_unlink with memfd_create in the shmem subtest. shm_open requires /dev/shm to be mounted, which is not always available in test environments, causing the test to fail with ENOENT. memfd_create creates an anonymous shmem-backed fd without any filesystem dependency while exercising the same shmem accounting path.
