bpf: mark a NULL call argument precise

check_func_arg() allows bpf_register_is_null() for nullable arguments
w/o marking the underlying scalar register precise. Hence a checkpoint
created on such a path would prune against arbitrary scalar value.

check_helper_call() enforces second parameter of the
bpf_get_local_storage() to be zero, w/o marking the underlying scalar
register precise. Hence a checkpoint created on such a path would
prune against arbitrary scalar value.

Grouping these two into one patch, as they share the same fixes tag.

Fixes: b5dc0163d8 ("bpf: precise scalar_value tracking")
