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.

This patch does the followings:
1. Modify libbpf and test_btf to reflect the uapi changes in btf
2. Add test for the btf_header changes
3. Add tests for array->index_type
4. Add err_str check to the tests
5. Fix a 4 bytes hole in "struct test #1" by swapping "m" and "n"

This patch cleans up btf.h in uapi:
1) Rename "name" to "name_off" to better reflect it is an offset to the
string section instead of a char array.
2) Remove unused value BTF_FLAGS_COMPR and BTF_MAGIC_SWAP

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.
