[PATCH v11 5/5] bpf: Only enable BPF LSM hooks when an LSM program is attached

BPF LSM hooks have side-effects (even when a default value's returned)
as some hooks end up behaving differently due to the very presence of
the hook.
The static keys guarding the BPF LSM hooks are disabled by default and
enabled only when a BPF program is attached implementing the hook
logic. This avoids the issue of the side-effects and also the minor
overhead associated with the empty callback.
security_file_ioctl:

This patch enables this by providing a LSM_HOOK_INIT_TOGGLEABLE
variant which allows the LSMs to opt-in to toggleable hooks which can
be toggled on/off with security_toogle_hook.
