bpf: Fix pos computation for bpf_iter seq_ops->start()


Currently, the pos pointer in bpf iterator map/task/task_file
seq_ops->start() is always incremented.
This is incorrect. It should be increased only if
*pos is 0 (for SEQ_START_TOKEN) since these start()
function actually returns the first real object.
If *pos is not 0, it merely found the object
based on the state in seq->private, and not really
advancing the *pos. This patch fixed this issue
by only incrementing *pos if it is 0.

Note that the old *pos calculation, although not
correct, does not affect correctness of bpf_iter
as bpf_iter seq_file->read() does not support llseek.

This patch also renamed "mid" in bpf_map iterator
seq_file private data to "map_id" for better clarity.
