Alexei Starovoitov f0fdfefb2d bpf: Add BPF program and map iterators as built-in BPF programs.
The program and map iterators work similar to seq_file-s.
Once the program is pinned in bpffs it can be read with "cat" tool
to print human readable output. In this case about BPF programs and maps.
For example:
$ cat /sys/fs/bpf/progs.debug
  id name            attached
   5 dump_bpf_map    bpf_iter_bpf_map
   6 dump_bpf_prog   bpf_iter_bpf_prog
$ cat /sys/fs/bpf/maps.debug
  id name            max_entries
   3 iterator.rodata     1

To avoid kernel build dependency on clang 10 separate bpf skeleton generation
into manual "make" step and instead check-in generated .skel.h into git.

Unlike 'bpftool prog show' in-kernel BTF name is used (when available)
to print full name of BPF program instead of 16-byte truncated name.

WARNING:
If you change "iterators.bpf.c" do "make -j" in this directory to rebuild "iterators.skel.h".
Make sure to have clang 10 installed.
