libbpf: Split BTF presence checks into libbpf- and kernel-specific parts
Needs for application BTF being present differs between user-space libbpf needs and kernel needs. Currently, BTF is mandatory only in kernel only when BPF application is using STRUCT_OPS. While libbpf itself relies more heavily on presense of BTF: - for BTF-defined maps; - for Kconfig externs; - for STRUCT_OPS as well. Thus, checks for presence and validness of bpf_object's BPF needs to be performed separately, which is patch does.
