bpf: Add comment to document BTF type PTR_TO_BTF_ID_OR_NULL

The meaning of PTR_TO_BTF_ID_OR_NULL differs slightly from other types
denoted with the *_OR_NULL type. For example the types PTR_TO_SOCKET
and PTR_TO_SOCKET_OR_NULL can be used for branch analysis because the
type PTR_TO_SOCKET is guaranteed to _not_ have a null value.

In contrast PTR_TO_BTF_ID and BTF_TO_BTF_ID_OR_NULL have slightly
different meanings. A PTR_TO_BTF_TO_ID may be a pointer to NULL value,
but it is safe to read this pointer in the program context because
the program context will handle any faults. The fallout is for
PTR_TO_BTF_ID the verifier can assume reads are safe, but can not
use the type in branch analysis. Additionally, authors need to be
extra careful when passing PTR_TO_BTF_ID into helpers. In general
helpers consuming type PTR_TO_BTF_ID will need to assume it may
be null.

Seeing the above is not obvious to readers without the back knowledge
lets add a comment in the type definition.

Editorial comment, as networking and tracing programs get closer
and more tightly merged we may need to consider a new type that we
can ensure is non-null for branch analysis and also passing into
helpers.
