libbpf: Make global data internal arrays mmap()-able, if possible
Add detection of BPF_F_MMAPABLE flag support for arrays and add it as an extra flag to internal global data maps, if supported by kernel. This allows users to memory-map global data and use it without BPF map operations, greatly simplifying user experience.
