selftests/bpf: fix static assert compilation issue for test_cls_*.c
[ Upstream commit 416c6d01244ecbf0abfdb898fd091b50ef951b48 ]
commit bdeeed3498c7 ("libbpf: fix offsetof() and container_of() to work with CO-RE")
...was backported to stable trees such as 5.15. The problem is that with older
LLVM/clang (14/15) - which is often used for older kernels - we see compilation
failures in BPF selftests now:

The problem is the new offsetof() does not play nice with static asserts.
Given that the context is a static assert (and CO-RE relocation is not
needed at compile time), offsetof() usage can be replaced by restoring
the original offsetof() definition as __builtin_offsetof().
