bpf: make infinite loop detection in is_state_visited() exact

Current infinite loops detection mechanism is speculative:
- first, states_maybe_looping() check is done which simply does memcmp
  for R1-R10 in current frame;
- second, states_equal(..., exact=false) is called. With exact=false
  states_equal() would compare scalars for equality only if in old
  state scalar has precision mark.

Such logic might be problematic if compiler makes some unlucky stack
spill/fill decisions. An artificial example of a false positive looks
as follows:

        r0 = ... unknown scalar ...
        r0 &= 0xff;
        *(u64 *)(r10 - 8) = r0;
        r0 = 0;
    loop:
        r0 = *(u64 *)(r10 - 8);
        if r0 > 10 goto exit_;
        r0 += 1;
        *(u64 *)(r10 - 8) = r0;
        r0 = 0;
        goto loop;

This commit updates call to states_equal to use exact=true, forcing
all scalar comparisons to be exact.
