Add tests loading simple BPF programs adding or subtracting one to its
argument and fix triggered signed integer overflow undefined behaviours:
lib/bpf/bpf_validate.c:324:24: runtime error: signed integer
overflow: 1 + 9223372036854775807 cannot be represented in type
'long int'
lib/bpf/bpf_validate.c:352:24: runtime error: signed integer
overflow: -9223372036854775808 - 1 cannot be represented in type
'long int'
As a minimal possible fix perform operation on unsigned integers where
overflow is well-defined, which was probably the original intent.
