bpf: don't infer PTR_TO_CTX for programs with unnamed context type

For program types that don't have named context type name (e.g., BPF
iterator programs or tracepoint programs), ctx_tname will be a non-NULL
empty string. For such programs it shouldn't be possible to have
PTR_TO_CTX argument for global subprogs based on type name alone.
arg:ctx tag is the only way to have PTR_TO_CTX passed into global
subprog for such program types.

Fix this loophole, which currently would assume PTR_TO_CTX whenever
user uses a pointer to anonymous struct as an argument to their global
subprogs. This happens in practice with the following (quite common, in
practice) approach:

typedef struct { /* anonymous */
    int x;
} my_type_t;

int my_subprog(my_type_t *arg) { ... }

User's intent is to have PTR_TO_MEM argument for `arg`, but verifier
will complain about expecting PTR_TO_CTX.

This fix also closes unintended s390x-specific KPROBE handling of
PTR_TO_CTX case. Selftest change is necessary to accommodate this.
