[PATCH bpf-next v5 6/8] selftests/bpf: Adjust bpf_map layout in verifier_map_ptr

With write-only excl member removed from struct bpf_map, ops moves
to offset 32 and inner_map_meta to offset 40. Update the expected
verifier message for the former and retarget the latter at the sha
byte array, so the beyond-member-end rejection path stays covered:
# LDLIBS=-static PKG_CONFIG='pkg-config --static' ./vmtest.sh -- ./test_progs -t verifier_map_ptr
[...]
#619/5 verifier_map_ptr/bpf_map_ptr: read non-existent field rejected:OK
#619/6 verifier_map_ptr/bpf_map_ptr: read non-existent field rejected @unpriv:OK
#619/7 verifier_map_ptr/bpf_map_ptr: read beyond sha field rejected:OK
#619/8 verifier_map_ptr/bpf_map_ptr: read beyond sha field rejected @unpriv:OK
#619/9 verifier_map_ptr/bpf_map_ptr: read ops field accepted:OK
#619/10 verifier_map_ptr/bpf_map_ptr: read ops field accepted @unpriv:OK
[...]
#620 verifier_map_ptr_mixing:OK
Summary: 2/20 PASSED, 0 SKIPPED, 0 FAILED
