bpf: Factor out program return value calculation

Factor the return value range calculation logic in check_return_code
out of the function in preparation for separating the return value
validation logic for BPF_EXIT and bpf_throw().

No functional changes. The change made in return_retval_code's handling
of PROG_TRACING program types (not error'ing on the default case) is a
no-op because the match on the program attach type is exhaustive.
