Currently, tracing/fentry and tracing/fexit prog return values are not enforced. In trampoline codes, the fentry/fexit prog return values are ignored. Let us enforce it to be 0 to avoid confusion and allows potential future extension. This patch also explicitly added return value checking for tracing/raw_tp, tracing/fmod_ret, and freplace programs such that these program return values can be anything. The purpose are two folds: 1. to make it explicit about return value expectations for these programs in verifier. 2. for tracing prog_type, if a future attach type is added, the default is -ENOTSUPP which will enforce to specify return value ranges explicitly.
