Currently LLVM fails to recognize .data.* as data section and defaults to .text
section. Later BPF backend tries to emit 4-byte NOP instruction which doesn't
exist in BPF ISA and aborts.
The fix for LLVM is pending:
https://reviews.llvm.org/D138477
While waiting for the fix lets workaround the linked_list test case
by using .bss.* prefix which is properly recognized by LLVM as BSS section.
Fix libbpf to support .bss. prefix and adjust tests.

Include various tests covering the success and failure cases. Also, run
the success cases at runtime to verify correctness of linked list
manipulation routines, in addition to ensuring successful verification.
