We are currently only allowing attachment of device-bound cls_bpf and XDP programs. Make this restriction explicit in the BPF offload code. This way we can potentially reuse the ifindex field in the future.
Since XDP and cls_bpf programs can only be loaded by admin, we can drop the explicit capability check from offload code.
