Implement the struct_ops arena argument conversion on x86. save_args()
gains the conversion map from bpf_tramp_collect_arena_args() and, as it
copies each native argument into the BPF ctx, routes a marked slot
through RAX:

  movl %esrc, %eax      /* truncate and clear the upper 32 bits */
  subl $base_lo, %eax
  movq %rax, ctx_slot

A nullable slot tests the full 64-bit kernel pointer first:

  movq  %rsrc, %rax
  testq %rax, %rax
  jz    1f
  subl  $base_lo, %eax
1:
  movq  %rax, ctx_slot

The 32-bit subtraction is sufficient since (u32)(kaddr - base) ==
(u32)kaddr - (u32)base, and it clears the upper half as the JITs require
of arena pointer registers. Stack-passed arguments already reload
through RAX, so only the subtraction (and the NULL test) is inserted
there. The marked slots are tracked with a running slot counter shared
by the register and stack branches, matching the flattened ctx offsets
in ctx_arg_info. The size probe reruns the same emission with the same
tnodes, so the image size matches by construction.

With both the kfunc and struct_ops directions implemented, flip
bpf_jit_supports_arena_args() on for x86.
