Merge branch 'btf2c-converter'

Andrii Nakryiko says:

====================
This patch set adds BTF-to-C dumping APIs to libbpf, allowing to output
a subset of BTF types as a compilable C type definitions. This is useful by
itself, as raw BTF output is not easy to inspect and comprehend. But it's also
a big part of BPF CO-RE (compile once - run everywhere) initiative aimed at
allowing to write relocatable BPF programs, that won't require on-the-host
kernel headers (and would be able to inspect internal kernel structures, not
exposed through kernel headers).

This patch set consists of three groups of patches and one pre-patch, with the
BTF-to-C dumper API depending on the first two groups.

Pre-patch #1 fixes issue with libbpf_internal.h.

btf__parse_elf() API patches:
- patch #2 adds btf__parse_elf() API to libbpf, allowing to load BTF and/or
  BTF.ext from ELF file;
- patch #3 utilizies btf__parse_elf() from bpftool for `btf dump file` command;
- patch #4 switches test_btf.c to use btf__parse_elf() to check for presence
  of BTF data in object file.

libbpf's internal hashmap patches:
- patch #5 adds resizeable non-thread safe generic hashmap to libbpf;
- patch #6 adds tests for that hashmap;
- patch #7 migrates btf_dedup()'s dedup_table to use hashmap w/ APPEND.

BTF-to-C dumper API patches:
- patch #8 adds btf_dump APIs with all the logic for laying out type
  definitions in correct order and emitting C syntax for them;
- patch #9 adds lots of tests for common and quirky parts of C type system;
- patch #10 adds support for C-syntax btf dumping to bpftool;
- patch #11 updates bpftool documentation to mention C-syntax dump option;
- patch #12 update bash-completion for btf dump sub-command.

v2->v3:
- fix bpftool-btf.rst formatting (Quentin);
- simplify bash autocompletion script (Quentin);
- better error message in btf dump (Quentin);

v1->v2:
- removed unuseful file header (Jakub);
- removed inlines in .c (Jakub);
- added 'format {c|raw}' keyword/option (Jakub);
- re-use i var for iteration in btf_dump_c() (Jakub);
- bumped libbpf version to 0.0.4;

v0->v1:
- fix bug in hashmap__for_each_bucket_entry() not handling empty hashmap;
- removed `btf dump`-specific libbpf logging hook up (Quentin has more generic
  patchset);
- change btf__parse_elf() to always load .BTF and return it as a result, with
  .BTF.ext being optional and returned through struct btf_ext** arg (Alexei);
- endianness check to use __BYTE_ORDER__ (Alexei);
- bool:1 to __u8:1 in type_aux_state (Alexei);
- added HASHMAP_APPEND strategy to hashmap, changed
  hashmap__for_each_key_entry() to also check for key equality during
  iteration (multimap iteration for key);
- added new tests for empty hashmap and hashmap as a multimap;
- tried to clarify weak/strong dependency ordering comments (Alexei)
- btf dump test's expected output - support better commenting aproach (Alexei);
- added bash-completion for a new "c" option (Alexei).
