bpf: pass attached BTF to the bpf_struct_ops subsystem

Pass the fd of a btf from the userspace to the bpf() syscall, and then convert the fd into a btf. The btf is generated from the module that defines the target BPF struct_ops type. In order to inform the kernel about the module that defines the target struct_ops type, the userspace program needs to provide a btf fd for the respective module's btf. This btf contains essential information on the types defined within the module, including the target struct_ops type. A btf fd must be provided to the kernel for struct_ops maps and for the bpf programs attached to those maps. In the case of the bpf programs, the attach_btf_obj_fd parameter is passed as part of the bpf_attr and is converted into a btf. This btf is then stored in the prog->aux->attach_btf field. Here, it just let the verifier access attach_btf directly. In the case of struct_ops maps, a btf fd is passed as value_type_btf_obj_fd of bpf_attr. The bpf_struct_ops_map_alloc() function converts the fd to a btf and stores it as st_map->btf. A flag BPF_F_VTYPE_BTF_OBJ_FD is added for map_flags to indicate that the value of value_type_btf_obj_fd is set.
