Add selftest that validates variable-length data reading and concatentation with one big shared data array. This is a common pattern in production use for monitoring and tracing applications, that potentially can read a lot of data, but usually reads much less. Such pattern allows to determine precisely what amount of data needs to be sent over perfbuf/ringbuf and maximize efficiency. This is the first BPF selftest that at all looks at and tests bpf_probe_read_str()-like helper's return value, closing a major gap in BPF testing. It surfaced the problem with bpf_probe_read_kernel_str() returning 0 on success, instead of amount of bytes successfully read.
