tools lib bpf: Introduce bpf_program__get_prog_info_linear()

Currently, bpf_prog_info includes 9 arrays. The user has the option to
fetch any combination of these arrays. However, this requires a lot of
handling.

This work becomes more tricky when we need to store bpf_prog_info to a
file, because these arrays are allocated independently.

This patch introduces 'struct bpf_prog_info_linear', which stores arrays
of bpf_prog_info in continuous memory.

Helper functions are introduced to unify the work to get different sets
of bpf_prog_info.  Specifically, bpf_program__get_prog_info_linear()
allows the user to select which arrays to fetch, and handles details for
the user.

Please see the comments right before 'enum bpf_prog_info_array' for more
details and examples.

+/*
+ * Get bpf_prog_info in continuous memory
+ *
+ * struct bpf_prog_info has multiple arrays. The user has option to choose
+ * arrays to fetch from kernel. The following APIs provide an uniform way to
+ * fetch these data. All arrays in bpf_prog_info are stored in a single
+ * continuous memory region. This makes it easy to store the info in a
+ * file.
+ *
+ * Before writing bpf_prog_info_linear to files, it is necessary to
+ * translate pointers in bpf_prog_info to offsets. Helper functions
+ * bpf_program__bpil_addr_to_offs() and bpf_program__bpil_offs_to_addr()
+ * are introduced to switch between pointers and offsets.
+ *
+ * Examples:
+ *   # To fetch map_ids and prog_tags:
+ *   __u64 arrays = (1UL << BPF_PROG_INFO_MAP_IDS) |
+ *           (1UL << BPF_PROG_INFO_PROG_TAGS);
+ *   struct bpf_prog_info_linear *info_linear =
+ *           bpf_program__get_prog_info_linear(fd, arrays);
+ *
+ *   # To save data in file
+ *   bpf_program__bpil_addr_to_offs(info_linear);
+ *   write(f, info_linear, sizeof(*info_linear) + info_linear->data_len);
+ *
+ *   # To read data from file
+ *   read(f, info_linear, <proper_size>);
+ *   bpf_program__bpil_offs_to_addr(info_linear);
