bpf: Update descriptions for helpers bpf_get_func_arg[_cnt]()
Now instead of the number of arguments, the number of registers
holding argument values are stored in trampoline. Update
the description of bpf_get_func_arg[_cnt]() helpers. Previous
programs without struct arguments should continue to work
as usual.
