libbpf: Update gen_loader to emit BTF_KIND_FUNC relocations
This change updates the BPF syscall loader to relocate BTF_KIND_FUNC relocations, with support for weak kfunc relocations. The general idea is to move map_fds to loader map, and also use the data for storing kfunc BTF fds. Since both reuse the fd_array parameter, they need to be kept together. For map_fds, we reserve MAX_USED_MAPS slots in a region, and for kfunc, we reserve MAX_KFUNC_DESCS. This is done so that insn->off has more chances of being <= INT16_MAX than treating data map as a sparse array and adding fd as needed. When the MAX_KFUNC_DESCS limit is reached, we fall back to the sparse array model, so that as long as it does remain <= INT16_MAX, we pass an index relative to the start of fd_array. We store all ksyms in an array where we try to avoid calling the bpf_btf_find_by_name_kind helper, and also reuse the BTF fd that was already stored. This also speeds up the loading process compared to emitting calls in all cases, in later tests.
