bpf: Introduce 8-byte BTF set
Introduce support for defining flags for kfuncs using a new set of
macros, BTF_SET8_START/BTF_SET8_END, which define a set which contains
8 byte elements (each of which consists of a pair of BTF ID and flags),
using a new BTF_ID_FLAGS macro.
This will be used to tag kfuncs registered for a certain program type
as acquire, release, sleepable, ret_null, etc. without having to create
more and more sets which was proving to be an unscalable solution.
Now, when looking up whether a kfunc is allowed for a certain program,
we can also obtain its kfunc flags in the same call and avoid further
lookups.
The resolve_btfids change is split into a separate patch.
