bpf: Fix an error in verifying a field in a union

We are utilizing BPF LSM to monitor BPF operations within our container
environment. When we add support for raw_tracepoint, it hits below
error.

; (const void *)attr->raw_tracepoint.name);
27: (79) r3 = *(u64 *)(r2 +0)
access beyond the end of member map_type (mend:4) in struct (anon) with off 0 size 8

It can be reproduced with below BPF prog.

SEC("lsm/bpf")
int BPF_PROG(bpf_audit, int cmd, union bpf_attr *attr, unsigned int size)
{
	switch (cmd) {
	case BPF_RAW_TRACEPOINT_OPEN:
		bpf_printk("raw_tracepoint is %s", attr->raw_tracepoint.name);
		break;
	default:
		break;
	}
	return 0;
}

The reason is that when accessing a field in a union, such as bpf_attr,
if the field is located within a nested struct that is not the first
member of the union, it can result in incorrect field verification.

  union bpf_attr {
      struct {
          __u32 map_type; <<<< Actually it will find that field.
          __u32 key_size;
          __u32 value_size;
         ...
      };
      ...
      struct {
          __u64 name;    <<<< We want to verify this field.
          __u32 prog_fd;
      } raw_tracepoint;
  };

Considering the potential deep nesting levels, finding a perfect
solution to address this issue has proven challenging. Therefore, I
propose a solution where we simply skip the verification process if the
field in question is located within a union.
