When using the "install" or targets depending on install,
e.g. "gen_tar", the BPF machine flavors weren't included.

A command like:
| make ARCH=riscv CROSS_COMPILE=riscv64-linux-gnu- O=/workspace/kbuild \
| HOSTCC=gcc FORMAT= SKIP_TARGETS="arm64 ia64 powerpc sparc64 x86 sgx" \
| -C tools/testing/selftests gen_tar
would not include bpf/no_alu32, bpf/cpuv4, or bpf/bpf-gcc.

Include the BPF machine flavors for "install" make target.

Looks good and BPF CI also seems to be fine with it, wrt INSTDIRS could we use
a more appropriate location where we define it? Was thinking sth like:

diff --git a/tools/testing/selftests/bpf/Makefile b/tools/testing/selftests/bpf/Makefile
index 7c77a21c3371..8b724efb8b7f 100644
