Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi 2de2669b4e bpf: Rename RET_PTR_TO_ALLOC_MEM
Currently, the verifier has two return types, RET_PTR_TO_ALLOC_MEM, and
RET_PTR_TO_ALLOC_MEM_OR_NULL, however the former is confusingly named to
imply that it carries MEM_ALLOC, while only the latter does. This causes
confusion during code review leading to conclusions like that the return
value of RET_PTR_TO_DYNPTR_MEM_OR_NULL (which is RET_PTR_TO_ALLOC_MEM |
PTR_MAYBE_NULL) may be consumable by bpf_ringbuf_{submit,commit}.

Rename it to make it clear MEM_ALLOC needs to be tacked on top of
RET_PTR_TO_MEM.
