bpf, tnums: Warn against the usage of tnum_in(tnum_range(), ...)
Commit a657182a5c51 ("bpf: Don't use tnum_range on array range checking
for poke descriptors") has shown that using tnum_range() as argument to
tnum_in() can lead to misleading code that looks like tight bound check
when in fact the actual allowed range is much wider.
Document such behavior to warn against its usage in general, and suggest
some scenario where result can be trusted.
