This patch relaxes the max_entries check for most of the inner map types
during an update to the outer map. The max_entries of those map types
are only used in runtime. By doing this, an inner map with different
size can be updated to the outer map in runtime.
The max_entries of arraymap and xskmap are used statically
in verification time to generate the inline code, so they
are excluded in this patch.
