__testapp_validate_traffic() calls exit_with_error() on failures. This
exits the program immediately. It prevents the following tests from
running and isn't compliant with the CI.

Return TEST_FAILURE instead of calling exit_with_error().
Release the resource of the 1st thread if a failure happens between its
creation and the creation of the second thread.

selftests/bpf: test_xsk: Don't exit immediately if validate_traffic fails

This changes __testapp_validate_traffic() to return TEST_FAILURE instead
of calling exit_with_error(), and adds cleanup for sockets and umem
before returning on pthread_barrier_destroy() failure.

In __testapp_validate_traffic(), thread t0 is created via pthread_create()
before the barrier operations. If pthread_barrier_destroy() fails, can this
leak thread t0?

The pthread_create(&t0, ...) happens earlier in the function. The normal
execution paths handle t0 via pthread_kill() or pthread_join(), but when
pthread_barrier_destroy() fails, the new error path calls clean_sockets()
and clean_umem() but never joins or kills t0 before returning TEST_FAILURE.

The commit message says "Release the resource of the 1st thread if a
failure happens between its creation and the creation of the second
thread", but the code only releases sockets and umem.
