Okash Khawaja	92b57121ca	bpf: btf: export btf types and name by offset from lib ... This patch introduces btf__resolve_type() function and exports two existing functions from libbpf. btf__resolve_type follows modifier types like const and typedef until it hits a type which actually takes up memory, and then returns it. This function follows similar pattern to btf__resolve_size but instead of computing size, it just returns the type. These functions will be used in the followig patch which parses information inside array of `struct btf_type *`. btf_name_by_offset is used for printing variable names.

Martin KaFai Lau	8a138aed4a	bpf: btf: Add BTF support to libbpf ... If the ".BTF" elf section exists, libbpf will try to create a btf_fd (through BPF_BTF_LOAD). If that fails, it will still continue loading the bpf prog/map without the BTF. If the bpf_object has a BTF loaded, it will create a map with the btf_fd. libbpf will try to figure out the btf_key_id and btf_value_id of a map by finding the BTF type with name "<map_name>_key" and "<map_name>_value". If they cannot be found, it will continue without using the BTF.
