bpf: Replace RET_XXX_OR_NULL with RET_XXX | PTR_MAYBE_NULL

We have introduced a new type to make bpf_ret composable, by
reserving high bits to represent flags.

One of the flag is PTR_MAYBE_NULL, which indicates a pointer
may be NULL. When applying this flag to ret_types, it means
the returned value could be a NULL pointer. This patch
switches the qualified arg_types to use this flag.
The ret_types changed in this patch include:

1. RET_PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE_OR_NULL
2. RET_PTR_TO_SOCKET_OR_NULL
3. RET_PTR_TO_TCP_SOCK_OR_NULL
4. RET_PTR_TO_SOCK_COMMON_OR_NULL
5. RET_PTR_TO_ALLOC_MEM_OR_NULL
6. RET_PTR_TO_MEM_OR_BTF_ID_OR_NULL
7. RET_PTR_TO_BTF_ID_OR_NULL

This patch doesn't eliminate the use of these names, instead
it makes them aliases to 'RET_PTR_TO_XXX | PTR_MAYBE_NULL'.
