bpf: Handle scalar spill vs all MISC in stacksafe()



When check_stack_read_fixed_off() reads value from an spi
all stack slots of which are set to STACK_{MISC,INVALID},
the destination register is set to unbound SCALAR_VALUE.

Exploit this fact by allowing stacksafe() to use a fake
unbound scalar register to compare 'mmmm mmmm' stack value
in old state vs spilled 64-bit scalar in current state
and vice versa.

Veristat results after this patch show some gains:

./veristat -C -e file,prog,states -f 'states_pct>10'  not-opt after
