I think it makes sense to restrict Checmate to loading programs that have been 
compiled with the current kernel ABI. We can further stabilize the ABI, and 
perhaps lift this restriction later.

Btw, this check is correct, program types are not masks.

BPF_PROG_TYPE_KPROBE (== 2) and BPF_PROG_TYPE_CHECMATE (== 7) will now
require every type to have a version code ...

Sorry, I meant to write *not* correct, which was hopefully inferable from
the rest.
