Andrii Nakryiko e0e3ea888c libbpf: Allow passing user log setting through bpf_object_open_opts
Allow users to provide their own custom log_buf, log_size, and log_level
at bpf_object level through bpf_object_open_opts. This log_buf will be
used during BTF loading. Subsequent patch will use same log_buf during
BPF program loading, unless overriden at per-bpf_program level.

When such custom log_buf is provided, libbpf won't be attempting
retrying loading of BTF to try to provide its own log buffer to capture
kernel's error log output. User is responsible to provide big enough
buffer, otherwise they run a risk of getting -ENOSPC error from the
bpf() syscall.

See also comments in bpf_object_open_opts regarding log_level and
log_buf interactions.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
