Fix: bytecode linker: iteration on wrong list head

lttng_enabler_link_bytecode() calls link_bytecode() passing an insertion
location (insert_loc) within the list. This insert location is meant to
be used as cursor position where to add the new element.

However, bytecode_is_linked() uses it as iteration list head, and this
is where things fall apart: it will thus consider the real list head as
being a list node, and will erroneously think that it is contained
within a struct lttng_bytecode_runtime, and thus try to perform possibly
out-of-bound read or read garbage data for the comparison.

It worked fine most of the time because in usual scenarios the insert
location is the list head. It falls apart when many bytecodes are linked
to a given event.
