selftests/bpf: Add variable-length data concat pattern less than test

Extend original variable-length tests with a case to catch a common
existing pattern of testing for < 0 for errors. Note because
verifier also tracks upper bounds and we know it can not be greater
than MAX_LEN here we can skip upper bound check.

In ALU64 enabled compilation converting from long->int return types
in probe helpers results in extra instruction pattern, <<= 32, s >>= 32.
The trade-off is the non-ALU64 case works. If you really care about
every extra insn (XDP case?) then you probably should be using original
int type.

In addition adding a sext insn to bpf might help the verifier in the
general case to avoid these types of tricks.
