bpf: make state->dfs_depth < state->loop_entry->dfs_depth an invariant
For a generic loop detection algorithm a graph node can be a loop header for itself. However, state loop entries are computed for use in is_state_visited(), where get_loop_entry(state)->branches is checked. is_state_visited() also checks state->branches, thus the case when state == state->loop_entry is not interesting for is_state_visited(). This change does not affect correctness, but simplifies get_loop_entry() a bit and also simplifies change to update_loop_entry() in patch 9.
