selftests/bpf: Fix pyperf180 compilation failure with clang18

With latest clang18 (main branch of llvm-project repo), when building bpf selftests,
    [~/work/bpf-next (master)]$ make -C tools/testing/selftests/bpf LLVM=1 -j

The following compilation error happens:
    fatal error: error in backend: Branch target out of insn range
    ...
    Stack dump:
    0.      Program arguments: clang -g -Wall -Werror -D__TARGET_ARCH_x86 -mlittle-endian
      -I/home/yhs/work/bpf-next/tools/testing/selftests/bpf/tools/include
      -I/home/yhs/work/bpf-next/tools/testing/selftests/bpf -I/home/yhs/work/bpf-next/tools/include/uapi
      -I/home/yhs/work/bpf-next/tools/testing/selftests/usr/include -idirafter
      /home/yhs/work/llvm-project/llvm/build.18/install/lib/clang/18/include -idirafter /usr/local/include
      -idirafter /usr/include -Wno-compare-distinct-pointer-types -DENABLE_ATOMICS_TESTS -O2 --target=bpf
      -c progs/pyperf180.c -mcpu=v3 -o /home/yhs/work/bpf-next/tools/testing/selftests/bpf/pyperf180.bpf.o
    1.      <eof> parser at end of file
    2.      Code generation
    ...

The compilation failure only happens to cpu=v2 and cpu=v3. cpu=v4 is okay
since cpu=v4 supports 32-bit branch target offset.

The above failure is due to upstream llvm patch [1] where some inlining behavior
are changed in clang18.

To workaround the issue, previously all 180 loop iterations are fully unrolled.
The bpf macro __BPF_CPU_VERSION__ (implemented in clang18 recently) is used to avoid
unrolling changes if cpu=v4. If __BPF_CPU_VERSION__ is not available and the
compiler is clang18, the unrollng amount is unconditionally reduced.

/* llvm upstream commit at clang18
* https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/commit/1a2e77cf9e11dbf56b5720c607313a566eebb16e
* changed inlining behavior and caused compilation failure as some branch
* target distance exceeded 16bit representation which is the maximum for
* cpu v1/v2/v3. Macro __BPF_CPU_VERSION__ is later implemented in clang18
* to specify which cpu version is used for compilation. So a smaller
* unroll_count can be set if __BPF_CPU_VERSION__ is less than 4, which
* reduced some branch target distances and resolved the compilation failure.
*
* To capture the case where a developer/ci uses clang18 but the corresponding
* repo checkpoint does not have __BPF_CPU_VERSION__, a smaller unroll_count
* will be set as well to prevent potential compilation failures.
