Extend direct cgroup program queries to merge (pl->flags & BPF_F_PREORDER) with the cgroup-wide flags when copying prog_attach_flags to user space. Only BPF_F_PREORDER is extracted from pl->flags to ensure transient positioning flags (such as BPF_F_BEFORE, BPF_F_AFTER, BPF_F_ID, or BPF_F_REPLACE) are not leaked to user space.
This can introduce new prog_attach_flags[] values with BPF_F_PREORDER set, for example 0x40 (BPF_F_PREORDER), 0x41 (BPF_F_ALLOW_OVERRIDE | BPF_F_PREORDER), or 0x42 (BPF_F_ALLOW_MULTI | BPF_F_PREORDER), depending on the cgroup-wide attachment mode. Older bpftool versions treat such combinations as unknown flags; bpftool support is updated later in this series.
