When cross compiling arm64 bpf selftests in x86_64 host, the following
error occur:

progs/loop2.c:20:7: error: incomplete definition of type 'struct
user_pt_regs'

Some archs, like arm64 and riscv, use userspace pt_regs in bpf_tracing.h.
When arm64 bpf selftests cross compiling in x86_64 host, clang cannot
find the arch specific uapi ptrace.h. We can add arch specific header
file directory to fix this issue.

v1->v2:
- use vmlinux.h directly might lead to verifier fail.
- use source arch header file directory suggested by Andrii Nakryiko.

This causes compilation error, see [0]. I think we'll have to wait for
my patch ([1]) to land and then add kernel-side variants for accessing
pt_regs.
