libbpf: add ksyscall/kretsyscall sections support for syscall kprobes

Add SEC("ksyscall")/SEC("ksyscall/<syscall_name>") and corresponding
kretsyscall variants (for return kprobes) to allow users to kprobe
syscall functions in kernel. These special sections allow to ignore
complexities and differences between kernel versions and host
architectures when it comes to syscall wrapper and corresponding
__<arch>_sys_<syscall> vs __se_sys_<syscall> differences, depending on
whether host kernel has CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_SYSCALL_WRAPPER (though libbpf
itself doesn't rely on /proc/config.gz for detecting this, see
BPF_KSYSCALL patch for how it's done internally).

Combined with the use of BPF_KSYSCALL() macro, this allows to just
specify intended syscall name and expected input arguments and leave
dealing with all the variations to libbpf.

In addition to SEC("ksyscall+") and SEC("kretsyscall+") add
bpf_program__attach_ksyscall() API which allows to specify syscall name
at runtime and provide associated BPF cookie value.

At the moment SEC("ksyscall") and bpf_program__attach_ksyscall() do not
handle all the calling convention quirks for mmap(), clone() and compat
syscalls. It also only attaches to "native" syscall interfaces. If host
system supports compat syscalls or defines 32-bit syscalls in 64-bit
kernel, such syscall interfaces won't be attached to by libbpf.

These limitations may or may not change in the future. Therefore it is
recommended to use SEC("kprobe") for these syscalls or if working with
compat and 32-bit interfaces is required.
