The bpftool sources include code to walk file trees, but use multiple
frameworks to do so: nftw and fts. While nftw conforms to POSIX/SUSv3 and
is widely available, fts is not conformant and less common, especially on
non-glibc systems. The inconsistent framework usage hampers maintenance
and portability of bpftool, in particular for embedded systems.
Standardize code usage by rewriting one fts-based function to use nftw and
clean up some related function warnings by extending use of "const char *"
arguments. This change helps in building bpftool against musl for OpenWrt.
Also fix an unsafe call to dirname() by duplicating the string to pass,
since some implementations may directly alter it. The same approach is
used in libbpf.c.
