Subject: bpf/tests: Reduce memory footprint of test suite
Patch-mainline: v5.16-rc1
Git-commit: 4bc354138d553bc48dc1fb1e184d50a524e6c20f
References: jsc#PED-1377

The test suite used to call any fill_helper callbacks to generate eBPF
program data for all test cases at once. This caused ballooning memory
requirements as more extensive test cases were added. Now the each
fill_helper is called before the test is run and the allocated memory
released afterwards, before the next test case is processed.
