bpftool: Add gen min_core_btf command

This command is implemented under the "gen" command in bpftool and the
syntax is the following:

$ bpftool gen min_core_btf INPUT OUTPUT OBJECT [OBJECT...]

INPUT is the file that contains all the BTF types for a kernel and
OUTPUT is the path of the minimize BTF file that will be created with
only the types needed by the objects.
