Subject: [PATCH bpf] selftests/bpf: wq: fix skel leak in serial_test_wq()

When wq__attach() fails, serial_test_wq() returns early without calling
wq__destroy(), leaking the skeleton resources allocated by
wq__open_and_load().

Fix this by jumping to a common clean_up label that calls wq__destroy()
on all exit paths after successful open_and_load.

Fixes: 8290dba51910 ("selftests/bpf: wq: add bpf_wq_start() checks")
