bpf, docs: Clarify definitions of various instructions
Clarify definitions of several instructions:
* BPF_NEG does not support BPF_X
* BPF_CALL does not support BPF_JMP32 or BPF_X
* BPF_EXIT does not support BPF_X
* BPF_JA does not support BPF_X (was implied but not explicitly stated)
Also fix a typo in the wide instruction figure where the field is
actually named "opcode" not "code".
