Added bpftool support to dump BTF_KIND_TAG information. The new bpftool will be used in later patches to dump btf in the test bpf program object file. Currently, the tags are not emitted with bpftool btf dump file <path> format c and they are silently ignored. The tag information is mostly used in the kernel for verification purpose and the kernel uses its own btf to check. With adding these tags to vmlinux.h, tags will be encoded in program's btf but they will not be used by the kernel, at least for now. So let us delay adding these tags to format C header files until there is a real need.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
