Andrii Nakryiko a095f42105 bpf: mostly decouple jump history management from is_state_visited()
Jump history updating and state equivalence checks are conceptually
independent, so move push_jmp_history() out of is_state_visited(). Also
make a decision whether to perform state equivalence checks or not one
layer higher in do_check(), keeping is_state_visited() unconditionally
performing state checks.

push_jmp_history() should be performed after state checks. There is just
one small non-uniformity. When is_state_visited() finds already
validated equivalent state, it propagates precision marks to current
state's parent chain. For this to work correctly, jump history has to be
updated, so is_state_visited() is doing that internally.

But if no equivalent verified state is found, jump history has to be
updated in a newly cloned child state, so is_jmp_point()
+ push_jmp_history() is performed after is_state_visited() exited with
zero result, which means "proceed with validation".

This change has no functional changes. It's not strictly necessary, but
feels right to decouple these two processes.
