selftests/bpf: Fix endianness issues in atomic tests

Atomic tests store a DW, but then load it back as a W from the same
address. This doesn't work on big-endian systems, and since the point
of those tests is not testing narrow loads, fix simply by loading a
DW.

bpf: Add tests for new BPF atomic operations

The prog_test that's added depends on Clang/LLVM features added by
Yonghong in commit 286daafd6512 (was https://reviews.llvm.org/D72184).

Note the use of a define called ENABLE_ATOMICS_TESTS: this is used
to:

- Avoid breaking the build for people on old versions of Clang
- Avoid needing separate lists of test objects for no_alu32, where
atomics are not supported even if Clang has the feature.

The atomics_test.o BPF object is built unconditionally both for
test_progs and test_progs-no_alu32. For test_progs, if Clang supports
atomics, ENABLE_ATOMICS_TESTS is defined, so it includes the proper
test code. Otherwise, progs and global vars are defined anyway, as
stubs; this means that the skeleton user code still builds.

The atomics_test.o userspace object is built once and used for both
test_progs and test_progs-no_alu32. A variable called skip_tests is
defined in the BPF object's data section, which tells the userspace
object whether to skip the atomics test.
