When a BPF stream_verdict program redirects an skb back to the same
socket (self-redirect with BPF_F_INGRESS), sk_psock_verdict_apply()
calls tcp_eat_skb() which advances tcp_sk->copied_seq. However, the
skb is then delivered to the socket's psock ingress queue and later
read by tcp_bpf_recvmsg_parser(), which also advances copied_seq via
the copied_from_self accounting path. This double-counting causes
copied_seq to advance by 2x the actual data length, triggering:
TCP recvmsg seq # bug 2: copied BF2E806, seq BF2E7FD, \
rcvnxt BF2E806, fl 0

Fix this by converting self-redirect verdict to __SK_PASS at the
beginning of sk_psock_verdict_apply(). This bypasses the
__SK_REDIRECT case entirely (which calls sk_psock_eat_skb), letting
the __SK_PASS path queue the skb to the psock ingress queue. The
data is then read via tcp_bpf_recvmsg_parser(), which advances
copied_seq exactly once through copied_from_self. Cross-socket
redirects continue through __SK_REDIRECT with sk_psock_eat_skb()
unchanged.
