Andrii Nakryiko e3b9242240 libbpf: add resizable non-thread safe internal hashmap
There is a need for fast point lookups inside libbpf for multiple use
cases (e.g., name resolution for BTF-to-C conversion, by-name lookups in
BTF for upcoming BPF CO-RE relocation support, etc). This patch
implements simple resizable non-thread safe hashmap using single linked
list chains.

Four different insert strategies are supported:
 - HASHMAP_ADD - only add key/value if key doesn't exist yet;
 - HASHMAP_SET - add key/value pair if key doesn't exist yet; otherwise,
   update value;
 - HASHMAP_UPDATE - update value, if key already exists; otherwise, do
   nothing and return -ENOENT;
 - HASHMAP_APPEND - always add key/value pair, even if key already exists.
   This turns hashmap into a multimap by allowing multiple values to be
   associated with the same key. Most useful read API for such hashmap is
   hashmap__for_each_key_entry() iteration. If hashmap__find() is still
   used, it will return last inserted key/value entry (first in a bucket
   chain).

For HASHMAP_SET and HASHMAP_UPDATE, old key/value pair is returned, so
that calling code can handle proper memory management, if necessary.
