bpftool: Use syscall/loader program in "prog load" and "gen skeleton" command.

Add -L flag to bpftool to use libbpf gen_trace facility and syscall/loader program
for skeleton generation and program loading.

"bpftool gen skeleton -L" command will generate a "light skeleton" or "loader skeleton"
that is similar to existing skeleton, but has one major difference:
$ bpftool gen skeleton lsm.o > lsm.skel.h
$ bpftool gen skeleton -L lsm.o > lsm.lskel.h
$ diff lsm.skel.h lsm.lskel.h

The light skeleton does not use majority of libbpf infrastructure.
It doesn't need libelf. It doesn't parse .o file.
It only needs few sys_bpf wrappers. All of them are in bpf/bpf.h file.
In future libbpf/bpf.c can be inlined into bpf.h, so not even libbpf.a would be
needed to work with light skeleton.

"bpftool prog load -L file.o" command is introduced for debugging of syscall/loader
program generation. Just like the same command without -L it will try to load
the programs from file.o into the kernel. It won't even try to pin them.

"bpftool prog load -L -d file.o" command will provide additional debug messages
on how syscall/loader program was generated.
Also the execution of syscall/loader program will use bpf_trace_printk() for
each step of loading BTF, creating maps, and loading programs.
The user can do "cat /.../trace_pipe" for further debug.

An example of fexit_sleep.lskel.h generated from progs/fexit_sleep.c:
struct fexit_sleep {
	struct bpf_loader_ctx ctx;
	struct {
		struct bpf_map_desc bss;
	} maps;
	struct {
		struct bpf_prog_desc nanosleep_fentry;
		struct bpf_prog_desc nanosleep_fexit;
	} progs;
	struct {
		int nanosleep_fentry_fd;
		int nanosleep_fexit_fd;
	} links;
	struct fexit_sleep__bss {
		int pid;
		int fentry_cnt;
		int fexit_cnt;
	} *bss;
};
